Political Career
[edit]Parliamentary Activities and Views
[edit]Zečević has emphasized the Democratic Front's role in preserving the ruling parliamentary majority and maintaining political stability. In an interview, he stated that "without the DF, there is neither a government, a parliamentary majority, nor a coalition."[1]
He has criticized coalition partners from Democratic Montenegro and former government leaders Zdravko Krivokapić, Aleksa Bečić, and Dritan Abazović, accusing them of lacking political legitimacy and having limited parliamentary support.[2]
Local Government
[edit]As a councilor in the Nikšić Municipal Assembly representing the Democratic Front, Zečević opposed the inclusion of a proposal to dismiss Mayor Marko Kovačević from the assembly’s agenda. He argued that the local parliament should focus on more significant and urgent matters.[3]
Electoral Reform

As a member of the Citizens' Council for Free and Fair Elections, established in collaboration with the NGO CeMI, he advocated for greater public involvement in the electoral process and supported legislative changes aimed at improving transparency and fairness.[4]
