SDP President Ranko Krivokapic originally upped the ante by asking the government, police and prosecutors to take action against DPS' attempts to "tailor the will of the people" regarding the Podgorica mayoral post, before announcing the possibility of breaking coalition ranks at the state level.
Predsednik SDP Ranko Krivokapić prvobitno je pojačao tenzije time što je zatražio od vlade, policije i tužilaštva da preduzmu mere protiv pokušaja DPS-a da „prekraja volju naroda“ u pogledu gradonačelnika Podgorice, pre nego što je obelodanio mogućnost raspada koalicije na državnom nivou.
