AGOTIC: LIOVIC'S STATEMENTS DON'T DESERVE ANY COMMENT
ZAGREB, Oct 7 (Hina) - General Imra Agotic, the presidential
advisor on military issues, said the statement by the president of
the Croatian Disabled Homeland War Veterans (HVIDRA) association
that his advice to President Stipe Mesic to retire seven generals a
week ago was wrong, said Liovic's stand did not deserve his
attention.
Liovic does not know what and how I advised President Mesic but he
still makes assessments, so I will pay no attention whatsoever to
what he is saying, Agotic told Croatian Radio.
At a news conference today, the HVIDRA president said that Agotic
had without prior consultations, and probably because of his less
important role in the Homeland War, wrongly advised President Mesic
to retire seven Croatian generals.
The generals were retired last Friday because of an open letter they
forwarded to the public together with five other retired and
reserve high-ranking officers, condemning the tarnishing of
Homeland War values by some politicians and the media.
