I\u2019ve said everything I have to say.&nbsp; I&#8217;m fascinated with the fact that they even came up with the idea&nbsp;to call me as the proposer to Parliament. I nominated an individual, and she can speak for herself, she\u2019s got integrity and a stance\u201d. President Milanovi\u0107 noted that his going to Parliament to justify his choice for the post would be a precedent, and the situation is different when it is about a bill. However, he reminded that the President of the Republic does not propose bills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Asked whether a constitutional crisis could occur if a new President of the Supreme Court is not appointed by then, President Milanovi\u0107 said: \u201cCroatia has been in a crisis for a long time considering that&nbsp;it is ruled by the principle whereby the&nbsp;party\u2019s interests are above those of the state. We cannot call everything a constitutional crisis, but this is uncalled for\u201d. Asked further about an eventual proposal for a different person to be at the head of the Supreme Court, the President of the Republic stated that we have to wait, and that his interest is to have people of integrity in leading positions and people who are independent in making decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The President also commented on today\u2019s crowds in Zagreb during the coronavirus vaccination. \u201cWe know that people are cautious, restrained, they do not wish to venture into something unknown, but that will take its toll on society and on those who do not wish to get the vaccine. On the one hand, it is good news that there are crowds at the Zagreb Fair, I hope it\u2019s not overly crowded and that order will be restored\u201d, he said, and reminded that all those who get vaccinated will live a somewhat more normal life, but that some are afraid and this issue will not be resolved by force.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The President of the Republic Zoran Milanovi\u0107 talked to reporters during his stay In Delnice, commenting on today\u2019s debate in the Croatian Parliament regarding his nomination of Zlata \u0110ur\u0111evi\u0107 for President of the Supreme Court, and the current situation related to the coronavirus vaccination in Croatia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":10743,"template":"","news-cat":[12],"class_list":["post-10789","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","news-cat-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
