How nice. Muscat and KonRat have found some more corrupt friends in Montenegro.

The Prime Minister and his henchman, Konrad Mizzi, are currently wheeling and dealing with Montenegro. So it will come as no surprise when I tell you that Montenegro’s Milo Djukanović was the recipient last year of the Organized Crime and Corruption ‘Person of the Year’ Award.

Every year, the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project acknowledges “those who best promote Uncivil Society” with this award.

The organisation’s website says: “For his work in creating an oppressive political atmosphere and an economy choked by corruption and money laundering, OCCRP honors Milo Djukanovic, Prime Minister of Montenegro, as OCCRP’s Person of the Year for his work in promoting crime, corruption and uncivil society.

“We really see this as a lifetime achievement award,” said OCCRP editor Drew Sullivan. “Nobody outside of (Russian President Vladimir) Putin has run a state that relies so heavily on corruption, organized crime and dirty politics. It is truly and thoroughly rotten to the core.”
