At a press conference after the talks with Colak, Sanader called on
members of the HDZ BiH not to follow Ivic Pasalic and his party called
the Croatian Bloc.
"This is not an act of interfering into the internal affairs of
Bosnia-Herzegovina which we respect as a sovereign, independent and
friendly country. This is only a suggestion not to follow losers,"
Sanader said.
He went on to say that he fully supported Colak, describing his
backing the Bosnian HDZ chief as "a discouragement for all who are
planning to destroy the HDZ and form the Croatian Bloc (HB) in
Bosnia":
Colak said that cooperation between the HDZ and the HDZ BiH could be
further improved, and stressed that his party and the Croat people in
Bosnia had helped the HDZ to win the recent parliamentary elections in
Croatia.
