ZAGREB, 19 June (Hina) - The Croatian Movement for Democracy and Social
Justice on Thursday issued a statement, signed by Academician Ivan
Supek, in which it 'protests against the conditions and atmosphere in
which the presidential elections were held'. #L#
Presidential candidates were not treated equally by the state-run
media and two candidates were assaulted, the statement said, adding the
Movement can not recognise the election results as democratic.
Commenting on the large abstention from voting, the Movement said
that 'people believed little that they could influence anything', which,
on the other hand, showed that at present they did not believe that
opposition parties could pull the country out of the crisis and bring it
back on the road of progress.
