Goran Dedović, Alfa Centar, Niksić, Montenegro.
A short interview with the Balkan Forum. His views on countering nationalist narratives in the Western Balkan region: “First of all, thank you for the invitation to the interview and a thank you to the Alpha Center for enabling me to participate in the REACT camp.
I have to start with the fact, and that fact is that the most peaceful period in the Balkans is from the end of the Second World War to the war of the 1990s. So, in a way, we have to have an understanding for nationalism, because there are reasons why it exists, unfortunately of course.
The cure is only in the Youth, the elders have already done their job, they have already gone through it, and the elders today affect the Youth in a bad way, well some in a good way.
We must not allow our elders to influence us, because this country Montenegro, this part of Montenegro that is, the Balkans and the whole former Yugoslavia will always remain here, regardless of whether it was called Montenegro, Duklja, Zeta or what it used to be called.
