Royal Family of Montenegro

[niafrondu62]

In addition to the mail I received and reproduced just above, I found on njegoskij.org another article reporting the engagement of Prince Nikola in 2006 as architect consultant for the investment company Boka Fund registered in Nassau, Bahamas, in the particular case of the privatization of the Montenegrin company "Jadran", owner of a potentially tourist complex called Palace Smekja:

Here is the link to the July/August 2007 issue of Italian magazine Etiquette. It has articles on page 5 on both Crown Prince Nikola and the trip of his daughter Princess Altinai to Montenegro.

You need Adobe Acrobat to view it, I think.

Dear Benjamin, it seems to me that you are living in Belgrade, as all people from Montenegro do. I wonder why?
Anyway, Nicola is a very pleasant man and very simple. He lives in Paris in a very modest appartement with a furniture from sixties. He has only one lugigge as a memory of his father. He has an Harley and his wife is very beautiful woman from Morocco. His projects of architecture are very 1968. which means very simple and commune style.
At the time he said that he had lost 10 years trying to get in better thouch with Montenegrins and he stated that he has now a layer who will try to persuade the Governement to give him back at least an appartement as to enable him to come from time to time to Montenegro.
His daughter is living vis a vis to his appartement and is very sympathetic young woman.

Princess Altinai was previously engaged to Alexandre Morin de la Fosse (announced in Le Figaro 31 October 2003).
Obviously something happened and it was called off at some stage.

According to press reports, the current version of the "Bill on the Status of the Dynasty" offers the Head of House Petrović Njegoš the following:

• €3.000 monthly stipend (equal to that of the President)
• €300.000 annual civil list
• a residence in Cetinje
• the historic home of the Petrović Njegoš family in Njeguši

In exchange for the above, the Head of the Royal House would have a semi-official government position.

However, Prince Nikola has rejected the bill because he believes that it does not deal with the issue of property compensation, and this is an important point as over thirty properties were confiscated from the Royal House after the monarchy was abolished. Furthermore, Prince Nikola believes that the bill would prevent the dynasty from participating in political life and restrict the ability of members of the dynasty to speak freely about certain subjects. Prince Nikola also says that the civil list amount that was announced in the press is not actually contained in the proposed version of the bill that he has seen.

Owing to his stance on this bill, Prince Nikola did not attend the celebrations of the bicentenary of the Kingdom of Montenegro that were held on 28 Aug 2010.
