Djurdja Adlesic was reappointed party vice president. Stanko Zrilic,
Hrvoje Vojkovic and Zelimir Janjic were appointed to the same post.
Cehok said in his address the new party leadership was capable of
making the HSLS once again one of the key factors in Croatian
politics.
"Croatia needs the HSLS, needs a strong social liberal party," he
said, adding that the new leadership would be able to recognise its
partners in the government while preserving the party's independence.
Also elected today were 33 members of the HSLS Governing Council, five
members on the Supervisory Board and five on the Statute Commission.
