Success! Security Assistance and Its Impact in Croatia, 1995-2000

Abstract

In January, 1996 the Croatian military clearly and overwhelmingly supported former Croatian President Franjo Tudjman and his monolithic party, the Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ). From the average Croatian soldier's point of view, there were good reasons for this support. Through its near total control of the press, the HDZ had managed to convince most of the military and many of the civilians in Croatia that the HDZ, and only the HDZ, could efficiently govern Croatia and effectively represent its interests abroad. It was, at that time, nearly unthinkable that, in the event of a crisis, the HDZ would not be able to count on the support of the Croatian military.
