President Milanović at the Commemoration of the Fallen Croatian Pilots in Otok: This was courage of a special kind
“These four heroes deserve a special chapter in the great story that has been written and retold for years. They died 34 years ago, and as long as we remember them, something continues to flow among us – in a way, they remain alive. Alive just like the small number of people who defended Croatia in 1991, because we often say that Croatia was defended by a few good people. Later, it was liberated by a somewhat larger number of good people, but those who were here at the very beginning were a small and rare group,” said the President of the Republic and Commander in Chief of the Croatian Armed Forces Zoran Milanović at today’s commemoration of the 34th anniversary of the deaths of Croatian Air Force pilots Marko Živković and Mirko Vukušić, paratroopers Rade Griva and Ante Plazibat, as well as 27 Croatian defenders and civilians from Otok.
President Milanović at the Faculty of Economics and Business: Nobody Listens to Europe Today
“The European Union is a huge bureaucratic project, undemocratic in its nature. Elitist and unelected, the EU was conceived that way and continues to function that way. We are still in a residual period of economic upturn. Money will keep coming for a while, but after that there will be less and less of it, while the number of those seeking it will grow. Europe is tired. Twenty years ago, Europe’s GDP was identical to that of the United States, and today the gap is so large that an entire Japanese GDP fits into it. Europe grew by 12 percent, while the American economy grew by 83 percent. That is no coincidence,” said the President of the Republic Zoran Milanović today, speaking at the celebration of the 105th anniversary and Faculty Day of the Faculty of Economics and Business at the University of Zagreb.
