In an exclusive interview with Radio B92, which will be aired fully on
Tuesday morning, Sanader said that the problem of tenancy rights was
complex, but he believed that it could be solved by the end of June,
by which time Croats occupying Serb flats and houses have to move
out.
"One of the problems is that we cannot throw those people out in the
street either," Sanader said.
"Property rights are indisputable. All those who own a house or a flat
have the right (to their property) and the Croatian government will
provide conditions for their return, but at the same time - and this
is new in our approach - we will provide accommodation for Croats who
are occupying those buildings, flats and houses, as we cannot allow
their ending up in the street. That is a humanitarian issue," the
prime minister said.
"Just as unquestionable the issue of property is, and I will not allow
anyone to challenge that right, so is the need to provide alternative
accommodation for those people," Sanader said.
