Montenegro voted yesterday by a comfortable majority
to split with Serbia and establish a new small
independent state in the Balkans, killing off what
remains of Yugoslavia. In a referendum that attracted
a turnout of almost 90%, much higher than at any
election since democracy arrived in 1990, voters
decided by a majority of 56% to 44% to opt for
independence rather than a creaking dysfunctional
union with Serbia, according to a projection by an
independent monitoring organisation last night.
