• DOSIP president Dalija Orešković sharply criticized HDZ, the Homeland Movement and Chief State Attorney Ivan Turudić, stating that historical revisionism, the extreme right and political control of institutions are strengthening in Croatia.
  • Commenting on the Trnje Bonfires, Orešković said that the protesters on the other side of the Sava embankment were less brave than before, and instead of ‘Za dom spremni’ they shouted ‘Za domovinu spremni’.
  • Orešković believes that HDZ participates in historical revisionism and that pro-Ustasha groups want to annul the period after 1945 and construct Croatia on the legacy of the NDH.
  • She addressed the conflict of jurisdiction between the DORH and the EPPO, emphasizing the importance of the European Commission’s statement and that Croatia lacks the capacity to fight for judicial independence on its own.
  • Regarding the Beroš affair, she argued that HDZ used legislative solutions to ensure political control over corruption prosecution, and that Turudić deliberately used the law to take over cases from the EPPO.
  • She also commented on affairs in sports associations, saying it is a ‘corruption-captured state’ and that HDZ has strong influence over sports organizations.
