In Montenegro, a street was almost named after Ratko Mladic

The proposal was ultimately dropped, but observers say the move was a sign of how Serb Chetniks continue to be glorified, while the Bosniak minority faces growing intimidation. When a local council in the town of Berane in Montenegro approved a proposal to name a street after convicted war criminal Ratko Mladic, Rahim Muratovic, the local imam, says he was not too surprised. In Montenegro, a Bosniak mosque is desecrated with Serb nationalist slogans along side the words “Srebrenica” as well as the derogatory “Turks”. Ivan Ejup Kostic, a board member of the European Muslim Network who is based in Belgrade, told Al Jazeera the reason behind repeated threats and intimidation of Bosniak Montenegrins lies in the “Greater Serbia” ideology which Serbia never abandoned. Back in Berane, Muratovic said locals have been moving away from the region, but especially Muslims, as “they have nothing ”.
