Sanader said that as a man and politician he wished all the best to Racan, who he said had left a mark on Croatia's political scene in the last 15 years.
Asked if he had talked with Racan on the telephone, Sanader said he had not.
President Stjepan Mesic this morning visited Racan in the Zagreb Clinical
Hospital, where Racan is being treated for cancer. Mesic also visited the SDP headquarters, where he talked with the party leadership.
