SDP and HNS members ignored the session at which the award was given to Gotovina with 17 votes in favor, no votes in opposition, and no abstentions, since they did not want to take part in decisions made for "daily political purposes", and which, as they said, "can harm Gotovina's defense in The Hague and ruin Zadar's reputation".
