ZAGREB, Feb 23
(Hina) - The Croatian Helsinki Committee (HHO) on
Wednesday stated that the list of nominees for the Programmes Council
of the national broadcaster (HRT) "does not express the will of the
civil society" and that the nominations were a result of political
trading with the aim of retaining political clout over Croatian Radio
and Television.
The HHO said that among the nominated candidates there was no prominent individual proposed by culture institutions or human rights organisations and that there was no representative of ethnic minorities, religious communities or academic associations.
