HEADQUARTERS: ROADS IN LIKA COUNTY TO BE UNBLOCKED BY 15 FEB

GOSPIC, Feb 12 (Hina) - The leader of a county association protecting the dignity of Croatia's Homeland War said in Gospic on Monday all roads in Lika-Senj County would be unblocked by February 15. The Lika County Headquarters for the Protection of the Dignity of the Homeland War has made this decision because it expects a civilised dialogue to be established between the government and the Central Headquarters for the Protection of the Dignity of the Homeland War, said president Ivan Vukic. The county headquarters insists that the Supreme Court voice its opinion about an appeal by the headquarters asking that Milan Canic be released from the Rijeka prison and that the warrant for the arrest of general Mirko Norac be withdrawn. The headquarters also demands that the Declaration on the Homeland War be respected in every segment, Vukic said. "Nobody can force us to take up arms, this is no sabre-rattling and we want to make that clear to the Croatian public but we will use all democratic methods guaranteed by the Constitution to express our dissatisfaction regarding the government's relationship toward the Homeland War and Croatian soldiers," the headquarters spokesman Darko Milinovic told reporters. Milinovic reported that the headquarters was preparing for a rally to be held in Zagreb's central square on February 15. (hina) rml
