Montenegro’s prime minister lied to the country’s president when he reportedly told him that he didn’t know who Do Kwon was on the day of his arrest, despite striking up a deal for 750,000 Terra/Luna tokens and allegedly meeting Do Kwon several times.
That’s according to the president of Montenegro, Jakov Milatović, who reportedly asked prime minister Milojko Spajić if he knew who Do Kwon was during a Europe Now! (PES) political party meeting on the day of Do’s arrest.
Translated from Montenegrin, the president said on Aplus television, “I asked him if he knew Do Kwon. He told me he didn’t know him. He also said that in front of ten members of PES, who are now ministers” (our emphasis).

Milatović also said during the interview that, “Montenegro should not become a safe destination for criminals, it sends a bad image,” and that authorities “owe us all the truth about Čamgoz and Do Kwon.”
In May, the former PM, Dritan Abazovićmp, alleged Spajić met Do to purchase millions of dollars worth of Terra/Luna tokens for a Bulgarian-based, Singaporean-headquartered hedge fund called Das Capital.
This is corroborated by SEC filings that reveal that Spajić invested $75,000 to buy 750,000 Terra/Luna tokens from Do Kwon’s Terraform labs.
Former justice minister Andrej Milović also claimed Serbia’s government intelligence agency recorded Spajić meeting Do at his villa. A letter from Do claims that he has known Spajić since 2018 while meeting several times in Belgrade, Serbia.
Aid of Nigel Farage in Montenegro politics
Milatović told Aplus television that Spajić introduced him to George Cottrell during the party meeting. George Cottrell is a convicted fraudster who works as an aide for right-wing UK politician Nigel Farage, and allegedly owned an illegal crypto ATM.

Spajić is said to have introduced Cottrell to the president “as a genius in the part of PR for election campaigns,” and Milatović agreed that Cottrell can help advise PES. Milatović stressed that Cottrell did not participate during his presidential campaign.
