I agree that this article's junk (by the way it's written). Since there's no collective source on Jevrem B, I just compiled several newspaper articles and translated them into English (from Croatian/Montenegrin /Serbian/Serbo-Croatian). However, I expect this to be a nice article within a year... --PaxEquilibrium 16:26, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

Pax, can You provide any source for Brković's support to Milošević? --BokicaK 21:49, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Well since many of the sources are Montenegrin newspaper articles (reliable, not tabloid), I think I could find where I read that.

BTW a member of my family was studying in Belgrade together with Jevrem, and I kinda know him personally. --PaxEquilibrium 09:13, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. I asked because someone asked same question at sr:. --BokicaK 12:43, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

During the 1980s while he was in Belgrade, he was a fierce proponent of Serb nationalism. Whenever he'd meet the Chief Editor of the "Književne novine", he'd always say "Good day mister Popovic, how are we Serbs today?" as his personal catch. His public outburst from the 1982 Bar High School's day is one of the most known. The play started, as usually, in Yugoslavist style - upon he in demonstration sat up and hit the floor with his stick, shouting "You shall never play me here Turkish poems again, but Serbian!"

After Tito's death Brkovic was of opinion that the Serbs (and Montenegrins) should use the moment and secede from Yugoslavia, prompting its dissolution, he stated that in fear that Slovenes, Croats and Albanians might soon start separating. --PaxEquilibrium (talk) 12:41, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
