Montenegro has set up a Fund for Minorities to help them preserve their religious, cultural and linguistic identities. The Minister for Human and Minority Rights, Fuad Nimani, told journalists on Friday that the Fund was “necessary not just for the minorities, but also for the whole of Montenegro”. Montenegro sets up fund for minorities “The funding will come from the state budget, 0.15 percent of which will be allocated to the new Fund. The work and various projects of the national councils of minority nations and national communities will be financed through the Fund”, Nimani said. The Fund will consist of the director and 13 members of the Board. Montenegro has a population of 630,000. Of the total, 43 percent are Montenegrins, 32 percent Serbs, 14 percent Bosniaks/Muslims, 6 percent Albanians and 1 percent Croats.

Snažno nevreme stiže u Srbiju

U većem delu Srbije će danas pre podne biti pretežno sunčano, toplo, suvo i vetrovito, uz olujnu košavu u Beogradu, na jugu Banata, u Pomoravlju i donjem Podunavlju, a već u poslepodnevnim satima biće kratkotrajne kiše ili pljuskova.
