"What is unacceptable in the dispute and what deserves condemnation is the exploitation of state positions of authority for stirring up disputes and for political promotion, which eventually harms Croatia's reputation," said the HSP president at a news conference in Osijek on Friday.
As for the recent agreement between the government and bankers about easing the burden on the shoulders of holders of the Swiss franc-pegged loans, Srb said the agreement "has practically changed nothing" and that a difference between the fixed and real exchange rate of the franc would be a new loan for those borrowers.
Srb said that that bringing charges against the Serb-run Manjaca concentration camp's commander 20 years after the atrocities proved the inactivity of the Croatian prosecutorial authorities.
He went on to say that indictments issued against wartime Serb leaders and the former Yugoslav People's Army (JNA) ahead of elections had never been finalised with trials or guilty verdicts.
