ABSTRACT

This chapter discusses Croatian, more exactly Franjo Tudman's policy in the period between the establishment of Republic of Serb Krajina (RSK) and the commencement of operation 'Storm', more exactly what measures had Tudman made to regain Serb controlled areas. The western republics, Slovenia and Croatia, opposed Miloševic. The Economic agreement was signed by RSK Prime Minister Borislav Mikelic, who was placed into this position by Slobodan Miloševic. The Glina District was supposed to consist of five municipalities with Serb majority in Banija and Kordun regions. Tudman also mentioned that international community does not want Croatia to go to war and in case of such solution threatens Croatia with sanctions. The Croatian authorities guarantee to the Serbian ethnic community all the rights provided for by the Croatian Constitution and the special Constitutional law, in accordance with all international conventions. After operation 'Storm' began, RSK leaderships also ordered the organized evacuation of Serb population from some parts of its territory.
