PROTEST RALLY ENDS WITH READING OF DEMANDS TO GOVT., DECLARATION

ZAGREB, Oct 20 (Hina) - The "Time's Up" protest rally, held on the main Zagreb square, ended some time before 3PM on Saturday with the reading of demands to the Croatian government and a declaration on the goals of the national headquarters for the protection of Homeland War values. The demands were read by the president of the headquarters' Zagreb branch, Ante Carapovic, urging the government to immediately move that the Croatian parliament call a referendum based on more than 400,000 signatures at which citizens would say whether Croatian Homeland War veterans should be given the same rights and dignity as the victorious WWII armies and other world liberation armies. The headquarters demands that the referendum be called by October 27 and held by December 20. The government is urged to recall at once an Interior Ministry arrest warrant for Gen.

ZAGREB, Oct 20 (Hina) - The "Time's Up" protest rally, held on the main Zagreb square, ended some time before 3PM on Saturday with the reading of demands to the Croatian government and a declaration on the goals of the national headquarters for the protection of Homeland War values. The demands were read by the president of the headquarters' Zagreb branch, Ante Carapovic, urging the government to immediately move that the Croatian parliament call a referendum based on more than 400,000 signatures at which citizens would say whether Croatian Homeland War veterans should be given the same rights and dignity as the victorious WWII armies and other world liberation armies. The headquarters demands that the referendum be called by October 27 and held by December 20. The government is urged to recall at once an Interior Ministry arrest warrant for Gen. Ante Gotovina and to reject to carry out the international arrest warrant in Croatia. The headquarters expects an immediate answer, and also demands the immediate withdrawal of a law on war veterans' rights, adopted yesterday. The headquarters demands that the authorities stop cutting social rights at the request of the International Monetary Fond, and stop with layoffs at the interior and defence ministries. If the government does not respond to or rejects the requests by October 27, the headquarters will, as announced, hold on to the right to use all methods of civil disobedience. The declaration adopted at the rally was read by the president of the association of Homeland War volunteers, Ante Roso. The declaration states that Croatia must be irreversibly separated from the Balkans and any Balkan associations, and that it must be proud of its belonging to Western civilisation and not flirt with the "Yugoslav ghosts from the past". We want a state in which war veterans will not be nailed to the pole of shame because of others' interests and the ultimate goal to equate the victim and the aggressor, under the mask of false care for the spiritual well-being of the nation, it was said in the declaration. The authorities must carry out the program introduced to the voters or resign and call early elections. "The Croatian veterans led a defence and liberation war against aggressors and terrorists on their own land and will not accept defeat after the war. The incumbent policy is leading us in that direction and when we say that this policy is traitorous, we speak the truth and say - time's up," read the declaration. (hina) np/ha sb
