Premier Racan said the government was aware of the gravity of the
situation and that it wanted to act in a responsible and sensible
manner.
We can have political disagreements in assessing what is in the
interest of Croatia and General Bobetko, but we would make a serious
historical mistake if we did not come out of this situation to the
benefit of Croatia and national unity, Racan said.
He announced the government's session for Friday.
Granic said that at tomorrow's session the government would take an
insight in the indictment and make a decision, but he declined to
speculate about the decision.
