\u201cWhen Parliament is dissolved, I will inform the public on my decision about the election date in the shortest time. Will I consult political parties regarding the election date? I won\u2019t, the responsibility rests with me. I can\u2019t talk with everyone. For instance, I can\u2019t talk with the (ruling party) HDZ at all because HDZ doesn\u2019t want to talk, it\u2019s their choice. So, I don\u2019t know how much sense it makes to talk with others,\u201d the President of the Republic Zoran Milanovi\u0107 said in Po\u017eega, in response to a reporter\u2019s question of when he would decide on the date of the parliamentary election, after attending a swearing-in ceremony of the 41st<\/sup> generation of soldiers enrolled in voluntary military training,.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

President Milanovi\u0107 commented to the representatives of the press on the appointment of the Chief of the General Staff of the Croatian Armed Forces and the Government\u2019s expectation that he would accept its proposed candidate for the post of Director of the Security and Intelligence Agency (SOA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThese are two separate things. They could have been merged had the Prime Minister taken my call, but he did not do that. My options are limited. I said that I wanted this to be resolved, although now, on the eve of the election, it is a question of whether it is acceptable. I don\u2019t know what the outcome of the election will be and maybe it\u2019s not proper to impose something on whoever\u2019s coming, in this way. The fact is that on 7 May, after 8 years, the term of SOA Director Marki\u0107 will expire. Realistically, we can find ourselves in a situation where there is no Government and we do not have both stakeholders in the co-signature because the Director is appointed by consensus and agreement. There is no Government proposal because according to the law the Government is not the proposer. The proposer can be (Prime Minister) Plenkovi\u0107, or I. This is the only way to preserve the dignity of the service and the dignity of that man who worked for the country for 8 years,\u201d said the President of the Republic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTwo days ago I tried to get in touch with Mr. AP, but he doesn\u2019t want to talk. The obstruction of the national security system has been going on for years,\u201d President Milanovi\u0107 warned, adding that it continues \u201cbecause someone imagined they could do it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe have a few more days ahead of us during which we can resolve this issue as well, but we need to talk,\u201d he said, adding that the forced appointment of Ivan Turudi\u0107 as State Attorney General is turning into one of the greatest farces in the country\u2019s history. \u201cAn oversight was made by the SOA. It is not possible for such important information not to be given to AP and for him to then cover himself by saying he did not know. The SOA and its imperfect procedures are responsible because AP wasn\u2019t in the know earlier. Now we will ensure that this is known earlier so that one does not have a series of defensive fortifications against the truth. According to the law, the SOA has a Director and a Deputy Director, and the Deputy Director has not been appointed because it does not suit the ruling HDZ party,\u201d concluded the President of the Republic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
