Croatia To Vote After Insult-filled Presidential Race

Dragan Primorac of the ruling HDZ wants to unseat Milanovic

DAMIR SENCAR

“These are elections for the future of our homeland which has been disgraced by the president’s actions,” he told a recent rally.

“We have a president who holds nothing sacred. Neither the homeland nor the work, he wakes up at 11:30 am … and likes to bicker,” he added.

Milanovic retorted by saying Primorac was as “fake as a 13-euro note and boring as a friendly (football) match”.

While the president’s powers are limited, many Croatians believe the office can tip the country’s political balance of power.

“Powers are minimal but even so the president can do a lot, it has to be someone truly worthy, with knowledge, which Milanovic is,” retired diplomat Davor Faget told AFP.

But Denis Novosel, a 30-year-old engineer living in Zagreb said he plans to vote for Primorac, because the “current president is not really at the level at which a president should be”.

Other voters have expressed frustration with the contest, saying it has centred more on name calling than policy debates.

“Everything is based on quarrels rather than on constructive proposals and programmes,” designer Katarina Kozul Baranovic told AFP, saying she planned to vote for the “lesser evil”.

Young Croatians have not been generally enthused by the race as they struggle to find affordable housing, stable jobs and sufficient income to have a family.

“Maybe that’s why they decide not to vote, because they look at it in a fatalistic way,” said Iva Jurisic, an 18-year-old student.

“We don’t have much to look forward to.”
