Montenegrin Prime Minister Milo Djukanovic has begun his visit to Washington, media reports say. German Radio Deutsche Welle reports today that “according to Podgorica's estimates the visit will determine the future political scene in Montenegro”. Djukanovic “seeks blessing for successor” During his trip stateside, “Djukanovic is to receive approval for his successor at the position of prime minister”. The radio states that Djukanovic has been preparing for th visit for a long time through his lobbyists, and that he succeeded in being received at a high level. According to the announcements, his hosts will be U.S. Vice-President Joseph Biden and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. The report goes on to say that “before his trip to Washington, Djukanovic fulfilled the condition set out by the U.S. administration to establishment diplomatic relations with Kosovo”. High official of the Montenegrin opposition party Movement for Changes Koca Pavlovic stated for Deutsche Welle that the six-time Montenegrin prime minister understood the message sent by the West: he must withdraw so that Montenegro would move on, as was the case with Ivo Sanader in Croatia. “Aware that he must back down, Djukanovic is trying to arrange a departure by the model he used in the fall of 2006 and that is why he took a projected successor Igor Luksic with him,” Pavlovic said, but “expressed doubt that Washington would agree to another farcical exit of Djukanovic like three years ago”.
