The former head of the Constitutional Court called Milanovic a pig.

The article discusses the controversial remarks made by former President of the Constitutional Court, Miroslav Šeparović, against current President of the Republic of Croatia, Zoran Milanović, who was referred to as a 'pig' on social media. The piece highlights the harshness of these insults but argues that the real issue lies in Šeparović’s role in shaping the legal narrative around Milanović’s eligibility for office. It criticizes the Constitutional Court under Šeparović’s leadership for acting as an extension of the ruling HDZ party, undermining judicial independence and the principle of the rule of law. The article suggests that Šeparović’s actions were politically motivated, aimed at discrediting Milanović ahead of potential elections, and raises concerns about the integrity of the judiciary.

Jandroković: HDHDZ does not care if Milanović will run for election

Gordan Jandroković, predsjednik Hrvatskog sabora, izjavio je da je za HDZ nebitno hoće li Zoran Milanović kandidirati na parlamentarnim izborima, jer su oni već pobijedili 'kad je bio on i kad nije bio on'. Odgovarajući na pitanje o vjerovanju u izjave Milanovića o svojoj kandidaturi, Jandroković je smatrao da su njegove prethodne izjave irelevantne. Također je naglasio da je HDZ i DP dvije različite stranke, ali da su zadovoljni suradnjom, posebno oko rezolucije o položaju Hrvata u Bosni i Hercegovini. Jandroković je istaknuo da će raditi na poboljšanju suradnje s koalicijom.

Bias read (Center): The article presents a statement from a political figure regarding internal party dynamics and coalition work, but does not take a clear ideological stance.

Why these scores (Factual 80 · Objective 85): This article accurately reflects the statements made by Jandroković regarding HDZ’s stance on Milanović’s potential candidacy. It maintains neutrality and avoids taking sides, presenting the information objectively based on reported quotes.

Jandroković: The HDZ does not care if Milanović will run for election

Predsjednik Hrvatskog sabora Gordan Jandroković izjavio je da mu je svejedno u stranci HDZ-u hoće li predsjednik Republike Zoran Milanović kandidirati na parlamentarnim izborima, jer su oni pobijedili 'kad je bio on i kad nije bio on'. Novinari su ga upitali o vjerovanju u izjave Milanovića da se neće kandidirati, a Jandroković je smatrao da su njegove prethodne izjave irelevantne jer se mogu promijeniti. Također je naglasio suradnju s koalicionim partnerom DP-om, ističući da su HDZ i DP dvije različite stranke, ali da su zadovoljni postignutom dogovorom oko rezolucije o položaju Hrvata u Bosni i Hercegovini. Izrazio je uvjerenu misao da će raditi na poboljšanju suradnje s koalicijom.

Bias read (Center): Iako se radi o političkoj temi, članak nema jasno izraženog stranih okreta. Jandroković izražava svoju poziciju bez evidentnog pokušaja da bi izbjegavala jednu stranu ili podsticanje druge. Iako se spominje Milanović, tekst ne prikazuje njegovu poziciju kao ničija, već kao nešto koje je već rečeno i

Why these scores (Factual 80 · Objective 85): Similar to item 1, this article faithfully represents Jandroković’s remarks without adding subjective commentary. It remains neutral and focuses on reporting the direct quotes from the official statement.

Kovač on the possible exit of Milanović to the parliamentary elections: "This is not a concern for the HDZ, but for the opposition alliance"

Miro Kovač, bivši šef diplomacije, je uživo u N1 Studio razgovarao s Hrvojem Krešićem o NATO summitu u Ankari. Također je izrazio svoje mišljenje o mogućem izlasku Zorana Milanovića na parlamentarne izbore, navodeći da bi takva situacija bila više zabrinjavajuća za oporbeni savez nego za HDZ.

Bias read (Center): The article presents a balanced discussion between Miro Kovač and Hrvoj Krešić regarding potential political developments involving Zoran Milanović.
