Momir Bulatović (Cyrillic: Момир Булатовић) (born 21 September 1956, Belgrade, FPR Yugoslavia), formerly served as a Yugoslavian and Montenegrin politician. Bulatović became federal President of Montenegro (1990–98) while Montenegro was part of a Yugoslav federation, and also Prime Minister of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (1998–2000). He led the Democratic Party of Socialists of Montenegro (DPS CG), successor to the League of Communists of Montenegro, from 1989-98. He lives in Belgrade.

Bulatović was born in Belgrade as the son of a Yugoslav People's Army (JNA) officer who originated from Montenegro. The family lived in the Voždovac neighbourhood. Due to the nature of his father's job his family frequently relocated throughout Yugoslavia. When Momir was five years old, the family moved to Zadar in Croatia, where he completed his primary and secondary education.

In 1975 the 18-year-old Bulatović moved to Titograd to study at the Veljko Vlahović University's Faculty of Economics. According to Bulatović, he wanted to return to Belgrade for university studies, but his family didn't have enough money to send him there, so he ended up in Titograd. Upon graduating he continued as an assistant at the same university and soon earned a master's degree.
