Sinj war veterans believe that the petition will be supported by
everyone in Croatia.
In their petition the veterans' associations note that the Rijeka
Court made its ruling on "political motives without any arguments"
and that veterans will never accept the verdict because it
represents the conviction of the entire Homeland War, Ante Smoljo
said on behalf of the coordinating body.
