| SD: Covic to be next HDZ President
| Slobodna Dalmacija pg 17 ‘Covic’s motto: Prozor must be defeated’ by D. Ljubas carries that there has been a struggle within HDZ these days whose goal is to bring Dragan Covic at the leading position of HDZ. SD says that the elections within HDZ are also a part of this game. SD says that the inter-party elections in Prozor will be remembered since a brutal showdown of those who support Covic and those who do not took place. A source from the HDZ leadership stated for SD that nothing spectacular can happenat the HDZ Convention in May apart from the absolute victory of Dragan Covic. SD goes on to say that it is possible that Covic appoints again Barisa Colak or someone similar to Colak at the position of the HDZ President so that he (Covic) can continue to act from shadow. |
| SD on possible successor to Covic
| Slobodna Dalmacija, pg 17 ‘Raguz in defense – Jovic waiting’, by Emil Karamatic – Carries an article that deals with possible successor to Dragan Covic in the BiH Presidency. SD notes that the two most serious candidates, as far as the media claim, are Martin Raguz and Ivo Miro Jovic, Regarding the former, SD notes that he is not to Covic’s liking, therefore he will have to wait for decisions of the HDZ Presidency. On the other hand Jovic says he is not familiar that he could replace Covic: “I must be honest and say that I have not heard anything from the relevant factors that take decisions”, said Jovic. SD concludes that it would appear that Covic himself is stalling the process of nomination of his replacement, since he is currently engaged in taking care of HDZ factions that are against him, adding that Covic must know that appointment of Jovic into the BiH Presidency would cause a crisis within the authorities, because in that case Raguz would make his move since he is supported by the HDZ in Capljina, Stolac, Neum and partly in Mostar, and since he is influential in the BiH Parliament. |
| VL interview: Barisa Colak on Covic’s removal
| Vecernji List, pg 5 ‘HDZ does not want to be in isolation’, by Miso Relota – Carries an interview with the President of HDZ BiH, Barisa Colak, in which he mostly talks about future activities of the party prior to the HDZ convention scheduled for May. Commenting on the removal of Dragan Covic from the BiH Presidency and responding to the journalist remark that possible conclusion of the BiH Parliament regarding the removal is not binding for the High Representative, Colak says the HDZ is not naïve since it knows what the HR’s authorities are. “However, we believe that the state Parliament must point out to everything that’s not good, it must take clear positions and such positions must eventually influence the behaviour of all participants in the state. If it were a story without result, there would not be sense in starting it (…) When we have clear positions of the Parliament, the HDZ Presidency will hold an urgent session and then we will decide about the moves. At this moment I would not prejudice the order of moves, but I am convinced that decisions of the HDZ Presidency will be in line with legality and constitutionality and we will abide by the laws and BiH Constitution”. |
