The HSP proposes that the Croatian Parliament organise a debate on the position of the Croats in Bosnia-Herzegovina, the achievements of the Dayton agreement and the need for amending it, party leader Ante Djapic said at a press conference in Zagreb.
He added that Parliament should also adopt a declaration on the matter, which would then be used by the government as a basis for its international political activities.
The Croatian government should actively lobby former members of the Contact Group for amending the Dayton peace accords, Djapic said.
Warning that the vital interests of the Bosnian Croats were in danger, Djapic cited principles on the basis of which the peace agreement should be amended. He said that it was necessary to dissolve the two existing entities, divide the country into eight cantons or regions with a high degree of autonomy, and create an effective central government and a bicameral parliament.
The HSP dismissed demands for the creation of a third entity for Bosnian Croats as unrealistic.
Djapic said that such demands had no international support, that many Croats would be left outside that entity and that it was impossible to draw a line between Bosniak- and Croat-majority areas. He, however, noted that the HSP did not rule out the administrative division of Bosnia-Herzegovina into three entities if the three constituent peoples decided so.
