Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov rejected an announcement by Montenegrin special prosecutor Milivoje Katric that Russian state bodies were involved in a plot to assassinate Montenegro's prime minister and overthrow his pro-Western government. Peskov insisted that Russia never gets involved in another country’s internal affairs, especially if it has a sound relationship with them as it does with Montenegro.

Britain's Sunday Telegraph reported that Montenegrin authorities believe Russia was behind an assassination scheme.
