The father of Croatia’s current president Ivo Josipovic, Mr. Ante Josipovic, was a very influential member of the communist inner circle during Tito’s Yugoslavia. There is evidence that he has committed some very serious crimes. These crimes resulted from his leadership in the “Ideological Commission” of the Communist Party of Yugoslavia. His office was responsible for the execution of over 100 Croatian dissidents and journalists outside of the former Yugoslavia, mainly in Germany. These crimes would almost certainly result in jail time in several EU countries, for the elder Josipovic. Someone in Serbia with access to old Yugoslav archives has the evidence about elder Josipovic and is using it to blackmail not only President Josipovic, but other implicated Croatian officials as well. The end result is that today, there is increased influence of Serbia in the government of Croatia.
