In the 13 months of Western-backed Israel’s military offensive in the Gaza Strip, ongoing, more than 44,000 Gazan civilians have been recorded killed while more than another 100,000 are considered “missing presumed dead”. The International Court of Justice (ICJ) had already officially ruled this continuous massacre of humans as “plausible genocide”. This ‘kill ratio’ by the Israeli Defence Forces in Gaza compares favourably (if one is comfortable with such inane idiom describing mass murder) with the far more intensive pace of killing of about 245,000 killed per month on average in the half-year of genocide in Rwanda in 1994. But Nazi Germany bettered Rwanda’s racist murder rampage in the 1941-45 period with an estimated rate of ‘extermination’ that peaked at 400,000 per month in just three of the six ‘death camps’ run so industriously by the Nazi forces. Some six million European Jews were ultimately killed in this five-year massacre, as well as around two million others designated as unsuitable to live. They were differently-abled people and also homosexuals and, people of the minority ethnic group Roma. Secretive An interesting difference between the handling of the victims of the Nazi human extermination in those infamous ‘death camps’ and the way the victims of Rwanda and Gaza were treated was that the Nazis attempted to be very secretive in their ‘Final Solution’ operation. The secrecy was also ensured by the non-existence of audio-visual recording technology (except expensive film cameras) and, the easy accessibility of media systems, that we enjoy today. Thus, the tens of thousands of Jews and others rounded up in the ghettos of Eastern Europe and herded into trains and transported to the Nazi death camps, did not realise their terrible fate even as they were hurried directly from the trains into the gas chambers. They were told that they were to undergo ‘disinfection’ showers. It was only in the final few seconds of their lives that the bulk of these millions of victims realised that it was toxic gas that poured out of what they thought were overhead shower spouts. Children, women and men died in this way after spending days travelling in trains under the pretence of being ‘transferred’ to new camps or to work sites. Only a smaller number – still totalling at least an estimated million victims – died in more traumatic circumstances under fire by Nazi shooting squads, the infamous Einsatzgruppen. Those victims, herded into large dug trenches, thousands at a time, would certainly have had to anticipate their imminent death as they saw the waiting machine guns and watched them open fire. The ethnic Tutsi victims in Rwanda also did not have the luxury of that orderly pretence and ghoulish charade in the Nazi death camps with their toxic ‘showers’ followed by the incinerator ovens that then burned the massed corpses. As in any violent ethnic riot (as in South Asia), the Tutsis knew what was coming as they fled the mobs or were cornered and mutilated. Certainly, those efficient Nazi mass murderers met their own fates at the hands of the victors of World War 2. Justice Then, too, the world experienced the justice of the victors when the defeated nations were subjected to punishment (including spontaneous punishments) ranging from imprisonment to death sentences. However, the victors did not undergo any judgment of the crimes of war perpetrated by them. The perpetrators of nuclear bombing of Japan were not subjected to prosecution although the defeated Japanese military were punished. Likewise, the perpetrators of the ‘strategic bombing’ campaigns that saw the ‘carpet bombing’ of German and Japanese cities that deliberately targeted civilians, enjoyed hero-worship instead of war crimes tribunals. In the much earlier colonial era, the Western powers of today were the perpetrators of genocide of whole indigenous populations. In that world, free of any form of news media, the colonial massacres were possibly even more bloody and on a larger scale. Instead of carpet bombing or gas chambers, the colonial methods of ethnic cleansing were forced starvation and the deliberate spread of European diseases unfamiliar to the indigenous peoples. The 20th and 21st century victims of genocide and war crimes must suffer very public, and, indeed, formally announced, massacres. The IDF kindly sends phone calls and air-drops leaflets minutes before to enable Palestinian families “escape” missile bombardment and shelling. Those who survive are few. A single medium calibre bomb’s blast radius is at least 50 metres or even 100 metres. Thus, many have neither the time nor the human ability to run that far. Only a very few are sprinters, no? Such experiences of forewarned bombardment are now many – in Gaza, West Bank, Lebanon – and, thanks to social media and professional journalism (by the victim nations themselves), the world is learning about such macabre military ‘courtesies’ of postmodern inhumanity. Pious The globalised human society of these postmodern times enables an emotionally acrid juxtaposition of violently conflicting human experiences. We learn about devastating bombardment and massacres in virtually the same instance as we learn about the pious ‘self-defence’ of the perpetrators and their warm enjoyment of safe lives. After all, on that fateful October 7, young Israelis were ‘raving’ in musical ecstasy barely kilometres distant from the besieged, suffering, deprived, traumatised Gazans in the veritable concentration camp that is their Strip home. Are we not reminded of a military-sponsored ‘moto-cross’ tamasha being conducted just kilometres away from the bitterly contested Northern frontlines of our own war zone? What a brutal military debacle did that moto-cross suffer when the enemy used the festive distraction to inflict costly damage to our airforce! This bizarre intimacy between two differently violent worlds – one an internalised, self-borne violence (Gaza) and the other, an externalised violence inflicted on others (Israel, West), is the emotive political foreground for last week’s long overdue, miserably symbolic, issuing of arrest warrants against possibly the two most, directly destructive, politicians currently doing their sick bit. Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant are now internationally “wanted” criminals and must hide from arrest in much of the world even as their regime in Occupied Jerusalem continues to wreak mass murder and war in West Asia. The evidence for the International Criminal Court’s indictments is there for all to see, as most of world humanity, traumatised by 13 months of televised unspeakable carnage, might point out. With over 44,000 dead, most of them women and children in the devastated Gaza Strip, and the rest of the Palestinians literally starving inside that tiny enclave already under military siege for nearly two decades, Premier Netanyahu (75) and former Minister Gallant (66) who have jointly executed the current Israeli military campaign, have much to answer for. Last Thursday, November 21, Pre-Trial Chamber No. I of the International Criminal Court (ICC), in its decision on the ‘Situation in the State of Palestine’, unanimously issued two rulings in relation to Israel’s role in West Asia. The ICC first rejected legal challenges by Israel brought under articles 18 and 19 of the Rome Statute. Arrest Warrants of arrest of Netanyahu and Gallant, are for crimes against humanity and war crimes committed from at least October 8, 2023 until at least 20 May 2024, the day the prosecution filed the applications for warrants of arrest.The Court also issued warrants of arrest for three Hamas militant leaders, all of whom have already been killed in action. Gallant had been Israeli Defence Minister serving 2022-2024 until he departed the post earlier this month. The ICC has so far publicly indicted 67 people since its establishment. Proceedings against 35 are ongoing: 30 are at large as fugitives, four are on trial, and one is in the appeals stage. Proceedings against 32 have been completed: two are serving sentences, seven have finished sentences, four have been acquitted, seven have had the charges against them dismissed, four have had the charges against them withdrawn, and eight have died before the conclusion of the proceedings against them. The ICC’s arrest warrants are classified as ‘secret’, in order to protect witnesses and to safeguard the conduct of the investigations. The Court’s media release said that, however, the ICC decided to release the information about the investigations since criminal conduct similar to that addressed in the warrant of arrest “appears to be ongoing”. In short, the International Criminal Court finds itself initiating a prosecution of crimes previously committed but also of crimes ongoing. The two indicted criminal suspects, both Israeli citizens, are safely immune from arrest while they remain within their country’s borders as Israel is not a party to the ICC’s jurisdiction. Neither is the USA, Israel’s main backer and, in a real sense – as many justice activists argue – a state complicit in Israel’s “ongoing” crimes. However, some 124 States are party to the ICC and are now legally bound to immediately arrest Netanyahu and Gallant if they set foot on their soil. They include nearly all European Union states which are also major allies of the Israel and are supporting it in its current many wars. Already, legal circles are poised to see how many countries will now cease providing military supplies to Israel for fear of being implicated in those same “crimes against humanity” and “war crimes”. But most justice activists point out that it took the ICC nearly a year before it issued arrest warrants during which tens of thousands of people have died, and whole territories laid waste. They said that the same ICC was far quicker to respond to the Russo-Ukraine war and indict Russian President Vladimir Putin.777 lodibet 。

The German expressed his concerns about his team’s current situation after the shock defeat. Barcelona suffered defeat at home and are now three La Liga games without a win. Sandro Ramirez put the visitors in front in the 49th minute before Raphinha leveled for Barcelona in the 61st-minute. Just six minutes later, Barcelona were punished when Portuguese attacker Fabio Silva struck the winner. It’s a worrying period for the Catalan giants after such a scintillating start to life under Flick. Real Madrid will close the gap in La Liga table to just one point if they come out victorious on Sunday. Flick gave a grim verdict of Barca’s struggles and pinpointed what had led to their slump. The German coach told reporters after the game: “When we control games, we can play well and create chances. “When we don’t, we have a problem. Before, it was easy to create chances and score goals, but now it’s not like that.” Related Topics: barca Hansi Flick LaLiga Las Palmas Don't Miss NPFL: Lobi Stars pip Kwara United, Insurance win at home You may like LaLiga: Ancelotti hints at new positions for Vinicius Jr, Mbappe LaLiga: Real Madrid president, Perez in showdown talks with Ancelotti over poor form LaLiga: Sadiq demands more playing time at Real Sociedad LaLiga: People don’t speak of him – Mbappe names very important Real Madrid player LaLiga: He’s in an extraordinary form – Ancelotti glad to have striker back to Real Madrid squad LaLiga: Messi gives verdict on Barcelona under Hansi Flick Advertise About Us Contact Us Privacy-Policy Terms Copyright © Daily Post Media Ltd

X owner Elon Musk has delivered a brutal takedown of an Australian newspaper, predicting they will lose their readership over “relentless lying”. The hit targeted Nine Entertainment’s Sydney Morning Herald after it published an opinion piece on Sunday featuring a prediction that irked the billionaire. The outlet published an article by technology editor David Swan in which he shared his predictions for the industry in 2025. One prediction was that Mr Musk would leave electric car manufacturer Tesla to focus on Government work with US President-elect Donald Trump. Mr Swan suggested that the world’s richest man would have too much on his plate. “To be juggling leadership roles at X (formerly Twitter), Tesla, SpaceX, xAI, the Boring Company and Neuralink was already unsustainable,” the SMH article read. “Musk now has wormed his way into Trump’s inner circle, and will jointly lead the president-elect’s DOGE – Department of Government Efficiency – in a bid to slash billions in government expenditure. “After constant controversies and distractions, it will all come to a head in 2025, and Musk will be forced to hand over the reins at Tesla, a company many mistakenly think he founded.” The prediction over Mr Musk’s resignation was not appreciated by the world’s richest man. Replying to a screenshot of the opinion piece, Mr Musk delivered his own prediction for 2025, aimed directly at the publisher of the article. “I predict that the Sydney Morning Herald will continue to lose readership in 2025 for relentlessly lying to their audience and boring them to death Mr Musk’s smackdown was shared with his 209 million followers on the X social media platform. “Easy prediction to make, any legacy media continuing to lie to their readers will face significant decline,” one user added to Mr Musk’s prediction. “Australia, Ireland and the UK are stuck in the woke nightmare, and I feel for them,” said another. “They are becoming more and more irrelevant,” a third added. One user shared a screenshot of Nine Entertainment’s share price, which has been in decline since 2022. Back on the Sydney Morning Herald website, Mr Swan appeared to strike a chord with some readers. “I’d love to see Musk on a one-way trip to Mars and stop teaching me how to live my life,” one person commented. “Musk quits Tesla and becomes de facto President of the USA!” wrote another. Mr Musk agreed with one user commenting on his post who said that “legacy media is in a doom spiral”. Mr Swan appeared to brush off the attack on his own X profile, writing, “Damn, roasted” in a post accompanied by a retweet of Mr Musk’s clap back. However, the reaction to Mr Swan’s was split on his profile. “You need to frame this,” one wrote. “How about so-called journalists try and get their dignity back by not reporting lies and gearing the audience towards clickbait,” said another. The controversy ended a week that the Sydney Morning Herald may want to put behind them. On Friday, the newspaper issued an apology after incorrectly identifying Adelaide barrister Ian Roberts as the South Australian fatality in the Sydney to Hobart race. Mr Roberts was not killed in the tragic accident, instead, South Australian Nick Smith lost his life when he was struck by a boom during dangerous weather. “The Sydney Morning Herald incorrectly named Adelaide barrister Ian Roberts as one of the victims in the Sydney to Hobart yacht race,” the Sydney Morning Herald wrote. “This was incorrect. We apologise to Mr Roberts and his family.”The Coalition has voiced concerns about Beijing-aligned tech companies lobbying politicians and departments without declaring their activities on a register set up to combat foreign interference. or signup to continue reading In September, executives from Chinese surveillance giant Hikvision travelled to Canberra to sway public officials ahead of the passage of major new cyber security legislation. Details of a contract with Labor-linked lobby firm Hawker Britton were declared in the government's foreign influence transparency register, which was set up as part of a broader package of laws introduced by the Turnbull government in 2018. The opposition's spokesman for home affairs, James Paterson, said other entities with links to foreign states should publicly declare their lobbying activities. "Hikvision's decision to register on the foreign influence transparency scheme blows away the excuses for other Chinese-headquartered companies with close connections to the Communist Party for their failure to do so," he told ACM "Huawei, DJI, TikTok, Dahua, BYD, and WeChat should all be transparent about their attempts to influence public policy in Australia and their close relationships with the Chinese government." Under foreign agent registration laws, individuals and organisations who undertake certain activities on behalf of a foreign government or related entity are required to publish it on a public register. A parliamentary committee called for sweeping changes to the laws this year after it found significant flaws in the scheme, pointing to a low number of registrations and minimal levels of compliance. It's understood the Attorney-General's Department is considering the changes but changes are not imminent. Hikvision, whose largest shareholder is owned by the Chinese government, launched its lobbying efforts as the government prepared to pass its overhaul of cyber security laws The tech giant and its competitor Dahua had following concerns over national security. The ban followed similar moves from governments in the US and the UK, which blacklisted Hikvision after it was implicated in Beijing's treatment of Muslim minority groups in China. A media representative from Hawker Britton told ACM the lobbying group had met its legal obligations to declare its relationship with the firm under the transparency scheme. The Department of Parliamentary Services, the entity responsible for provisioning services in Parliament House, said its representatives did not meet Hawker Britton and Hikvision during the visit in September. Home Affairs was unable to say whether its officials met Hikvision because it does not hold a department-wide diary. The Department of Defence and the Department of Infrastructure refused to say whether their officials held meetings the lobbyists. The Attorney-General's Department did not respond before deadline. Independent senator David Pocock, who has joined crossbenchers to call for an overhaul of the federal lobbying system, said there needs to be greater transparency about which companies are influencing decision-makers. "We need ministerial diaries to be published. A public register of sponsored pass holders and who sponsored them as well as including in-house lobbyists on the register," he said. Darren Halpin, a professor of political science at the Australian National University who researches lobbying at a federal level, said a growing appetite for clearer lobbying regulations is unavoidable. "I think it's inevitable there will be some firming up of house rules. In the past, it's mostly been scandal-driven and that's been the impetus to sort of fix these systems," he said. "It's not a question specific to Australia, the whole agenda around transparency and influence in politics is top of mind of most institutions because citizens are concerned about the quality of democracy, and decisions that are made and how they are being made."

Despite the buzz surrounding Indiana's surprise 10-0 start under first-year head coach Curt Cignetti, the Buckeyes shut down any hopes of an upset early. Ohio State entered halftime with a one-touchdown lead and outscored Indiana by 17 points in the second half to cruise to a 38-15 victory. Unsurprisingly, there was some trolling from Ohio State directed at Indiana during and after the big win. From Buckeyes quarterback Will Howard's touchdown celebration to OSU head coach Ryan Day tacking on an extra score late in the game, the Buckeyes had some words for the Hoosiers. NCAAF HQ: Live NCAAF scores | Updated NCAAF standings | Full NCAAF schedule Did Ryan Day run up the score? You be the judge here. Indiana found the end zone for the second time Saturday with 1:53 remaining in the game. The Buckeyes were expected to just run the ball for a first down and either run out the clock or kneel down to ice the win at Ohio Stadium. But Buckeyes running back TreVeon Henderson ran 38 yards and went down right at the Indiana 1-yard line with 1:10 left on the clock. Instead of kneeling down, Day decided to add insult to injury and punch the ball into the end zone. His quarterback Will Howard scored on a one-yard run to give Ohio State a 23-point lead. After the game, Day told reporters that he wanted to put an exclamation point on the game.

He clarified that he was just having fun, and that he has plenty of respect for Indiana and for Cignetti. “I was just having some fun with it. I got a lot of respect for those guys, man. I think what coach Cignetti’s done over there, he’s done a heck of a job.” @JennyTaft asked @OhioStateFB QB Will Howard about the ‘Google me’ reaction 😅 pic.twitter.com/1G8VxL36fF While these two teams won't meet again in the Big Ten title game with Oregon already locked into one of the spots, we could get a rematch in the College Football Playoff.

NoneAs previously reported , QT Marshall released a diss track aimed at Big Boom! AJ of the Costco Guys, ahead of their match at Full Gear tonight. In an interview with Fightful ), Marshall gave credit to AEW production team member Giancarlo Dittamo for helping him put together the track. He said: “ When we first brought him in, Giancarlo was like, ‘You know you have to make a parody of this.’ Okay. I’m not in tune with the TikTok world and social media. Every now and again, I’ll chime in, but for the most part, I stay to myself. [Giancarlo] loved it. It was like his baby. It did really well and I thought it was fun. For people that were like, ‘This is worse that...’ whatever, sure, whatever you want to say. It got people talking, it got exposure, and that’s what this industry is about. Eliciting a reaction from the audience. If we’re doing that, we’re doing our job. If it translates, we’ll see. For me, it shows a different side of me. ‘Oh, I didn’t know that guy can have fun.’ I always play a serious role. I get bumped around and stuff, but I play a role on a show. I’ve always been like that. I’ve never tried to go into business for myself. I’m just happy to have a job in wrestling. I don’t take it too seriously. It should be fun. There is business that has to be done and we have to be serious about that and getting in there with the trust of your co-workers, but at the end of the day, it’s a great but ridiculous job. If you can’t go out there, put yourself out there, and have fun. It’s ridiculous fun. Then, there will be serious moments on the show. There’s going to fun. A whole plethora of stuff.

has appointed Charles Kushner, his son-in-law’s father, to be the US ambassador to France. The president-elect, 78, pardoned Mr Kushner, who in 2006 served a prison sentence for tax evasion, witness tampering and making illegal campaign donations, at the end of his first administration. Chris Christie, a former New Jersey governor, described Mr Kushner’s case as “one of the most loathsome, disgusting crimes” he ever prosecuted as a US attorney. Announcing the appointment, Mr Trump said the property developer, 70, was a “tremendous business leader, philanthropist and dealmaker, who will be a strong advocate representing our country and its interests”. He referenced , his former White House adviser, but did not mention that he is married to his daughter Ivanka. “Congratulations to Charlie, his wonderful wife Seryl, their four children, and 14 grandchildren”, he wrote on Truth Social. He added: “His son, Jared, worked closely with me in the White House, in particular on Operation Warp Speed, Criminal Justice Reform and the Abraham Accords. “Together, we will strengthen America’s partnership with France, our oldest ally, and one of our greatest!” The appointment underscores Mr Trump’s commitment to filling his administration with loyalists and close allies. pardoned Mr Kushner as part of an 11th-hour clemency spree during the final days of his first presidency, with the White House citing Mr Kushner’s charitable work since he completed his 2006 prison sentence. Mr Kushner pleaded guilty to 16 counts of tax evasion, one count of retaliating against a federal witness and another count of lying to the Federal Election Commission in 2005. He was sentenced to 24 months in prison. Part of the case involved the real estate developer hiring a prostitute to seduce his brother-in-law William Schulder, who was cooperating with a federal investigation against him. He filmed the encounter and sent the footage to his wife, Esther. The Schulders took the videotape to the prosecutors who tracked down the woman. In 2019, Mr Christie, a former presidential candidate, called it “one of the most loathsome, disgusting crimes” he had ever prosecuted. Jared, 43, previously described the deep impact his father’s imprisonment had on him. He was in his early 20s and a law and business school student in the mid-2000s when his father was sentenced and suddenly found himself having to run the family’s businesses while shuttling back and forth on weekends to see his father in Alabama. “When you’re on the other side of the system, you feel so helpless,” Mr Kushner said in 2018. “I felt like I was on this side of the system, so how can I try to do whatever I can do to try to be helpful to the people who are going through it and deserve a second chance.”New Delhi, December 30: Nvidia is expected to shift its focus towards robotics in 2025 to respond to the growing competition in the AI chip market. The company, known for its dominance in AI hardware, is said to explore opportunities in robotics to drive its future growth. The company reportedly plans to launch a new series of compact computers for humanoid robots. As per a report of Financial Times , Nvidia is preparing to focus on robotics as a long-term growth strategy. The company provides a complete solution that covers everything needed for AI-powered robots. This includes the various software layers that help train the robots, as well as the chips that are installed inside them. Nvidia is expected to introduce its new line of compact computers for humanoid robots, which may be called Jetson Thor, sometime in the first half of 2025. Samsung Patents Eye-Tracking Smart Glasses, Self-Adjusting Galaxy Ring 2 Feature and AI-Powered Imaging Technology for Upcoming Launches: Report. Nvidia is said to be focusing on robotics as a key area for its future growth. As one of the top semiconductor companies in the world, it might be looking for new opportunities. The company is facing more competition in its main business of making chips for AI from companies like AMD. Additionally, major cloud computing companies such as Amazon, Microsoft, and Google are trying to lessen their dependence on Nvidia. By investing in robotics, Nvidia is likely to find new ways to expand and succeed in the business. European Commission Mandates USD Type C Charging Port for All Portable Electronic Devices To Avoid Market Fragmentation. Deepu Talla, the vice-president of robotics at Nvidia, has reportedly mentioned that there is a significant change happening in the robotics market. The change is being influenced by two major technological advancements. The first is the rapid growth of generative AI models. The second breakthrough is the capability to train robots using these foundational models in simulated environments. Most of Nvidia's revenue comes from its data centre business, which includes its AI GPU chips. The segment contributed for around 88 per cent of the company's total sales, which reached USD 35.1 billion in the third quarter.

According to the latest report it seems that the Apple’s addition promise to invest $100 million has not been accepted by the country. For those who are unknown, the total amount that apple has promised to invest in Indonesia is $110 million. As reported by Indonesian News Agency Antara, the Industry Ministry wants the investment to be larger. The increase in investment is expected to develop Indonesia’s domestic manufacturing sector and help the country to become a part of Apple’s global supply, mentioned ministry spokesperson Febri Hendri Antoni Arif. According to the Indonesian law, the foreign companies are expected to offer 40% local content in order to operate in the country. It is as a part of Domestic Component Level (TKDN) certification. The companies can comply with the above mentioned law by either manufacturing products locally, developing the software locally or by settings R&D centres. Apple has initially made an offer to invest more than IDR 1.71 trillion ($109 million) in local R&D facilities. However, it has only invested IDR 1.48 trillion ($95 million).

ZAGREB, Croatia (AP) — Croatia’s incumbent President Zoran Milanovic won most of the votes in the first round of a presidential election on Sunday, but must face a runoff against a ruling party candidate to secure another five-year term. With nearly all of the votes counted, left-leaning Milanovic won 49% while his main challenger Dragan Primorac, a candidate of the ruling conservative HDZ party, trailed far behind with 19%. Pre-election polls had predicted that the two would face off in the second round on Jan. 12, as none of the eight presidential election contenders were projected to get more than 50% of the vote. Milanovic thanked his supporters but warned “this was just a first run.” “Let’s not be triumphant, let’s be realistic, firmly on the ground,” he said. “We must fight all over again. It’s not over till it’s over.” Milanovic is an outspoken critic of Western military support for Ukraine in its war against Russia. He is often compared to Donald Trump for his combative style of communication with political opponents. The most popular politician in Croatia, 58-year-old Milanović has served as prime minister in the past. Populist in style, he has been a fierce critic of current Prime Minister Andrej Plenković and continuous sparring between the two has lately marked Croatia’s political scene. Plenković, the prime minister, has sought to portray the vote as one about Croatia’s future in the EU and NATO. He has labeled Milanović “pro-Russian” and a threat to Croatia’s international standing. “The difference between him and Milanović is quite simple: Milanović is leading us East, Primorac is leading us West,” he said. Though the presidency is largely ceremonial in Croatia, an elected president holds political authority and acts as the supreme military commander. Milanović has criticized the NATO and European Union support for Ukraine and has often insisted that Croatia should not take sides. He has said Croatia should stay away from global disputes, though it is a member of both NATO and the EU. Milanović has also blocked Croatia’s participation in a NATO-led training mission for Ukraine, declaring that “no Croatian soldier will take part in somebody else’s war.” His main rival in the election, Primorac, has stated that “Croatia’s place is in the West, not the East.” His presidency bid, however, has been marred by a high-level corruption case that landed Croatia’s health minister in jail last month and featured prominently in pre-election debates. During the election campaign, Primorac has sought to portray himself as a unifier and Milanović as divisive. Primorac was upbeat despite such a big defeat in the first round. “I know the difference (in votes) at first sight seems very big,” said Primorac, who insisted that the center-right votes had split among too many conservative candidates. “Now we have a great opportunity to face each other one on one and show who stands for what,” he said. Sunday’s presidential election is Croatia’s third vote this year, following a parliamentary election in April and the European Parliament balloting in June.
