Luzanski comments election results in Croatia
BiH Federation Vice-president Ivo Andric-Luzanski congratulated the former Croatian opposition on their victory and stated that the HDZ fulfilled its historical duty by creating a sovereign and independent state. Luzanski believes that the removal of current authorities in Croatia will not change relations with Croats in BiH, because aid to Croats in BiH is a constitutional obligation of the Republic of Croatia, not individual political parties.
