The paper provides an overview of the public work of persons belonging to Montenegrin political and social life during the Montenegrin participation in the aggression on the Republic of Croatia in 1991 and 1992. The attitudes of Montenegrin political and cultural actors on Montenegro’s involvement in the aggression on the Republic of Croatia were divided, with the division having its origins in the early 20th century. Since the beginning of the 20th century two opposing political factions have existed within Montenegro. One political option is in favour of a distinct Montenegrin nation and statehood, which has been in good relations with Croatian politics up to this day. On the other hand, there is a political option that supports the thesis that Montenegrins belong to the Serbian ethnos. It also strives to strengthen bonds with Serbia, which developed the Greater Serbian Project in the 19th century that claims Croatian and Montenegrin territories. During the Montenegrin participation in the aggression on the Republic of Croatia in the early 1990s, the Pro-Montenegrin political option formed parliamentary opposition, held anti-war views and upheld the Montenegrin national idea. However, the warmongering Pro-Serbian political option held power and supported the Serbian national identity of Montenegro.
