ZAGREB, Apr 26 (Hina) - Libra president Jozo Rados said on Saturday his party could count for the time being on forming a pre-election partnership with the Liberal Party (LS) because of similar programmes, even though Libra was hoping
for a broader coalition with the parties of the incumbent ruling coalition.

Since the major parties in the coalition -- the Social Democrats,
the Croatian People's Party, the Croatian Peasant Party -- have
said they will run in the ballot independently, Libra is also in
contact with the Green Party and regional parties, Rados told Hina
after a session at which Libra's head committee considered plans
for the election campaign.
Rados said Libra was in favour of the election date being set,
provided the ruling coalition agreed if it was capable of
completing its term by next spring or if the ballot should be held
this autumn.
