(Prime Minister) Plenkovi\u0107 is not the problem, but he must understand that in a democracy things do not function as they do in an authoritarian political party,\u201d the President emphasized. Journalists also asked President Milanovi\u0107 to comment on the Prime Minister\u2019s claim, who criticized the President\u2019s views by saying that \u201cthe President is bored.\u201d \u201cHe did not criticize me, but the function. He was referring to the nature of the job and, as far as I understood it, it\u2019s not my fault,\u201d President Milanovi\u0107 said, inter alia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>President Milanovi\u0107 announced that he will mark the 25<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary of Operation Storm at Knin Fortress together with wartime commanders, whom he would also decorate on that occasion. \u201cIn the morning of 4 August, I will meet veterans from the First Croatian Police Officers unit and in the evening of that day I will confer medals and promotions upon Croatian Army service-people. I will also confer medals upon the brigades of the Croatian Defense Council (HVO) who participated in Operation Storm under the command of the Croatian Army and whose members died to liberate Croatian soil,\u201d the President of the Republic announced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur triumph in Operation Storm is stainless, pure and heroic, and the killing of elderly villagers in Grubori was barbaric,\u201d President Milanovi\u0107 asserted, commenting on the announced possible connection between the celebration in Knin and the commemoration to be held for Serb civilian victims in the village of Grubori, who were killed in the aftermath of Operation Storm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe victims of Grubori should be remembered on the day when the murders took place. The elderly were killed in a cowardly and barbaric manner \u2013 that was banditry. The victory of the guards brigades and other units in Operation Storm is stainless, pure and heroic. Croatia has no complexes and it need not bow its head in shame,\u201d said the Croatian President, who concluded that he would \u201cprobably attend the commemoration on the anniversary of the killings in Grubori.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<!--GALLERY BLOCK-->\n<div class=\"c-lightbox-gallery js-lightbox\">\n                <!--single-->\n            <a data-no-swup class=\"c-lightbox-gallery__single
