ZAGREB, May 31, 2020 – Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ) vice-president Ivan Anusic said on Sunday that the mission of Miroslav Skoro and his Homeland Movement in the coming parliamentary election was to “undermine the Christian Democrat and people’s camp, the kind of which Social Democrats are unable to form on their own.”
Anusic said in a statement for the press that during his visit to Vukovar on Saturday, Skoro, whose platform is based on the 1991-95 Homeland War, had to answer a question from which he had been hiding ever since he returned to the political arena, namely where he had been in 1990.
Anusic said that Skoro had to confirm that he had been in the United States at the time, visiting Croatia several times, also to attend a rally of the Coalition of People’s Accord, which, Anusic said, “was a fierce opponent of Christian Democracy as advocated by then HDZ leader Franjo Tudjman.”
“The same way he sided with those who did not want Croatia’s independence with Tudjman at its helm back then, so in 2019 with his political engagement he helped Zoran Milanovic become President,” said Anusic, noting that the Homeland Movement’s mission in the coming election was to topple the Christian Democrat and people’s camp the kind of which, he said, Social Democrats were unable to form on their own.
