Description

Having been kindly asked by the Editorial Board of "Crossroads" to write on the above topic, the mixed feelings came to me. And I deliberately use the word "feelings" instead of "reminiscences" or "reflections", thou the second words should be logically used as the right ones to reflect on the path crossed by Croatia in CoE. But the beginning of the nineties, when Croatia had started its relations with CoE, were also the years when the aggression was launched at my country. We were defending ourselves and our right to self-determination and independence and very existence of lives and properties of our citizens, at the same time dismantling one party totalitarian system and introducing pluralist, multi party system, turning a new page in our history, a democratic one. It was not an easy job, but hopes were high. Being deprived, at those times, like many other countries from central and Eastern Europe, of true practical knowledge and experience of democratic processes and being inclined to either underestimate or overestimate them, it was not and, perhaps, it is still not, an easy task to find a proper balance between the two. And balance in all aspects, as we all know, is one of the key prerequisites for a success story, both in lives of individuals and nations worldwide. Thinking about those times, my emotions precede my reminiscence or rather do go hand in hand with them.
