Bulatović served as Interior Minister of Montenegro from 1990 to 1992, then as Federal Minister of Interior of FR Yugoslavia and as Minister of Defence of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia from 1993 until his assassination in 2000. Bulatović represented the Socialist People's Party of Montenegro which was then allied in government with the Socialist Party of Serbia, led by Slobodan Milošević.[1][2]
Death
Bulatović was shot dead in Belgrade on the evening of 7 February 2000.[3][2] The shooting took place at the restaurant of FK Rad in the Belgrade suburb of Banjica.[1] He later died at the Military Medical Academy in Belgrade.
Immediately after the killing, the Yugoslavian government went into an emergency session and declared that Bulatovic had been the victim of terrorism.[3] As of 2024[update], his assassination remains unsolved.[4]
