BROD NA KUPI, July 7 (Hina) - Four Croatian regional parties on
Sunday signed a joint declaration on starting points for the
establishment of regional self-rule. #L#
The parties - Istrian Democratic Assembly (IDS), Primorje-Gorski
Kotar Alliance (PGS), Slavonia-Baranja Croatian Party (SBHS) and
the Dalmatian Action - urge the establishment of five regions and
their higher autonomy. Those regions would be Slavonia and Baranja,
the central Croatia, Dalmatia, the Rijeka region, and Istria.
These four parties, three of which have the parliamentary seats in
the Sabor, will support the new prime minister designate and
government, the parties' leaders said after their two-day meeting
in the town of Brod na Kupi.
IDS leader Ivan Jakovcic said the IDS, PGS and SBHS, the three
parties with parliamentary seats, would back Ivica Racan as the new
prime minister designate.
