Only such treatment will prevent further unjustified differentia (discrimination) against persons who also came to Montenegro from countries with increased levels of infection (more than 25 cases per 100,000), which were allowed to enter Montenegro by private yachts and planes, with tests not older than two days, or other special permits, without referrals to quarantine or self-isolation, as well as to those placed in self-isolation or released from quarantine before the expiry of the 14-days without waiting for the test results. We also pointed out this discrimination through the example of the systematic violation of the rights of Montenegrin seafarers, who currently represent majority of persons in quarantine. »
