OKUCANI, May 1 (Hina) - At the end of the ceremony marking the
10th anniversary of the combined military and police operation Flash in Okucani
on Sunday, Prime Minister Ivo Sanader formally opened a newly-built square in
the centre of the town which will bear the name of the first Croatian
president, Franjo Tudjman. Speaking at the square opening ceremony,
Sanader repeated that the operations Flash and Storm, which crushed the Serb
rebellion in central Croatia ten years ago, were built into the foundations of
the Croatian state.
Sanader said he expected that all parliamentary parties would reach a
consensus on Tudjman's role in gaining independence for Croatia, adding that
the first Croatian president had no doubt played an enormous role in creating
the independent Croatian state.
