ZAGREB, Nov 15 (Hina) - The ruling Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ)
will not recommend that the Croatian Government propose to the
Constitutional Court to proclaim the Croatian President
permanently incapable of performing his duties, HDZ spokesman
Ivica Ropus said in an interview for prime time news on Croatian
Television Monday evening.#L#
He said that commenting on statement by some media reading that the
Constitutional Court could proclaim the President permanently
incapable, in order to act in line with the constitutional
regulation, according to which the President of the Croatian
National Sabor could call elections for December 22.
On behalf of the HDZ, Ropus expressed disgust about such statements
as well as other statements by several opposition parties and their
leaders, adding that such pre-electoral campaign demonstrated poor
taste. He also said that was an attempt of additional dramatisation
of the political situation in Croatia.
"I guarantee that the HDZ will not recommend that the Croatian
Government forwards a proposal to the Constitutional Court to
implement such decision, because the President has the right to be
ill as any other man and every man with good intentions in this
country should wish him a speedy recovery", Ropus said.
