New evidence of secret meetings between the Prime Minister of Montenegro, Milojko Spajic, and Do Kwon, the founder of Terraform Labs, raises the political temperature in the country. The Serbian government’s intelligence agency has now been alleged to have documented Spajic meeting Kwon at a villa in Belgrade by the country’s former Justice Minister, Andrej Milović. These allegations come at a time when Spajic has been on the spot for not having any meetings with Kwon, thus intensifying the political crunch.

Milović Accuses Spajic of Secret Do Kwon Meeting

Milović said that Spajic met Do Kwon in Serbia to prove that Serbia’s BIA had recorded the meeting. Milović noted that the meeting was a part of Spajic’s efforts to ensure that Kwon was not extradited to the United States. Spajic, therefore, allegedly wanted Kwon to be deported back to South Korea, where he might receive a lighter penalty.

Adding to the drama, Milović claimed Spajic acted based on a Terra/Luna token transaction. Spajic also met Kwon, according to former Prime Minister Dritan Abazović, who accused the executive of trying to seal a ‘deal’ for a hedge fund, Das Capital. The fund is based in Bulgaria and Singapore, and it is said that interest has been expressed in acquiring millions of dollars worth of these tokens.

Montenegro Political Infighting Exposes Government Instability

Spajic has been accused of various wrongdoings, and the entire incident has created many controversies and fears about Montenegro’s government’s credibility. Milović, now the candidate for the Mayor of Podgorica, has chosen the whistleblower role. He has said that he lost his job as justice minister because he did not keep quiet about these meetings.

 

At the moment, the current Justice Minister, Bojan Božović, is probing Milović for not surrendering a Kurdish mobster to Turkey. These allegations have been met by Milović, who has accused both Spajic and Božović of plotting against him to get funding from Turkey for Montenegrin infrastructure projects. This political infighting shows the more significant problem within the Montenegrin government, which is its instability.
