Speaking about the reorganisation of the Armed Forces, Antunovic
recalled that 4,000 members of staff were redundant in Slavonia,
because of which the situation was perhaps more difficult in that
area than anywhere else in Croatia.
Redundancies in some areas and a lack of employees in others can
occur with the reorganisation of the military, so one can expect
transfers of officers, non-commissioned officers and soldiers
within the system, said Marekovic.
