    Thank you so much Brittius & Ina. Only two days ago we had a sad anniversary of Yugoslav agression in Dubrovnik area. I had never felt so much disappointed in my life till that day watching the world powers so insensitive to the suffering of the city and its people. I will never forget nor forgieve that CNN reporter who claimed we had staged the attack. After 22 years that report still serves certain circles in Srbia and elsewhere as proof that we provoked everything that happened in the war. Later on there was another Briton who brought us faith that good people still exist. It was Michael Foot who risked his life and spent his savings to show the UK what was really going on. We are passing a tough period even now and still need a friendly face.

      Thank you Unimatriks Ziro, Serb-led propaganda about the war is still strong, sadly, efforts are high to avoid admitting guilt on their part. Their aggression against Croatia was because they wanted to deny the Croatian people the right of self-determination and pursuit of democracy. This must never be lost from sight even though it gets hard to keep the right perspective amidst the push to equate victim with the aggressor.

I’m Ina

I was born in Croatia and live Australia. I have been described as a prominent figure known for my contribution to the Croatian and wider societies, particularly in the context of Croatia’s transition from communism to democracy, as well as for my many years of work as a clinical psychologist and Chief Executive Officer of government-funded services for people with disabilities, including mental health services, in Australia. In 1995, the President of the Republic of Croatia awarded me two Medals of Honor, the Homeland War Memorial Medal and the Order of the Croatian Trefoil for her special merits and her contribution to the founding of the Republic of Croatia.  I have been a successful blogger since 2011 and write extensively in the English-language on issues related to Croatian current affairs and democracy, as well as the challenges Croatia faced and still faces in its transition from communism. My goal is to raise awareness of these connections and issues worldwide.
