Vucic in Krusedol: You got rid of the Serbs - does this make you happy or successful?

No Vucic, Storm didnt happen only because you lacked unity. Its because your beloved Serbs carved out a quasi state built on ethnic cleansing, murder and violence, using the guise of 'self determination' to essentially conduct a land grab including additional areas with little to no historical Serb populations. Eventually were called out on it with horrible consequences. In the end what went around came around.

'Is Croatia today happier, more successful or wealthier because of it?'

We actually are, thanks for asking. Now continue celebrating your losses.

'Is Croatia today happier, more successful or wealthier because of it?'

Well they like to think they are for a few days before reality sets in and the country goes back to being a collection of depopulated ghost towns where the best and brightest leave for menial jobs in Central Europe while its "war veterans" search for food in garbage bins and live in crumbling shacks because their government ignores them while stealing as much tax revenue for their own personal resources. Add to this the fact that Croats are one of the most nationally paranoid people in the Balkans next to Albanians and its no wonder their biggest festival of the year is a celebration of ethnic cleansing headlined by a neo-nazi has-been singer whose popularity is perpetuated by xenopbobic right-wing Diaspora living abroad who speak some rudimentary incomprehensible village Croatian.

I like to think that the Serbs who were expelled in 1995 got a head start on the more than a million Croats who left, never to return in the 25 years following :)

Happy LOL. Yeah and the happiness keeps going on with now over 300,000 Croats having left Croatia for greener pastures. By the way 29,000 alone moved to Germany in 2018 - German statistics not mine.
Very very soon Croatia will be the biggest retirement village in the world which exactly what the Serbs have planned.

From so sad too bad: "'Is Croatia today happier, more successful or wealthier because of it?'

In Croatia today you have record unemployment, young people fleeing the country at every opportunity, no foreign investment, a reputation as an intolerable fascist-leaning state with a government rife with corruption. Sounds to me like you're celebrating your losses. Too funny!

From aaa: "In the end what went around came around."

So you would agree then the creation Republika Srpska is justified while the Croat population has, and continues to decline in B-H. Afterall, what went around came around, right?

You should do a little research before posting. While the economy is not great compared to other EU member countries it is doing a lot better then 1995. GDP alone increased from $21 B to $ 60B.
Current unemployment is around 7% and foreign workers are being imported. As for the thousands of young people leaving for higher paying jobs in other EU countries the same is happening in Poland, Hungary, Spain, Italy etc.... It goes along with open borders. A big question is how many of those 200,000 Croatian citizens who are now working all over Europe are ethnic Serbs who left Croatia after Oluja are using Croatian documents to legally work in other EU countries.
From having 35% of the country occupied in 1995 to having full control of it’s borders being a member of NATO and taking over the presidency of the EU next year I would have to disagree with you and Vucic and say Croatia is a lot better off now then in 1995.

I agree that like the RSK, Republika Srpska was built on similar 'principles' and should be handled in kind

From Mark W: "A big question is how many of those 200,000 Croatian citizens who are now working all over Europe are ethnic Serbs who left Croatia after Oluja are using Croatian documents to legally work in other EU countries."

A little research on your part Mark would have shown you that in 2013 Croatia's population was 4.3 million. In 2017 it was 4.1 million. 200K+ Serbs were ethnically cleansed from Croatia after Operation Storm in 1995. The 200K population decline between 2013 - 2017 began a full 18 years after Serbs were expelled. So, my question to you is, if things are so great in Croatia today, why does this exodus of Croats continue? After you answer that, please tell me about foreign investment that the government has attracted. The reality is that Croatia survives on an economy that relies on tourism four months of the year. Hardly enough to sustain a country of 4 million, oops, the real number is probably well below 4 million now.

BTW, how is Agrokor doing these days? You remember the Croatian conglomerate that borrowed billions from Russian banks only to find out they couldn't repay the debt after joining the EU because of the competition from EU countries drove sales and profits down, thus forcing them into bankruptcy. Yeah, you guys are doing great. Keep telling yourselves that, maybe you'll believe it even if no one else does.

You just described Serbia :)

Dont worry sj, should those geriatric Serbs decide to drive their tractors back to Croatia, we'll know how to handle them :)

Mark W......amazing how you twist the truth. You claim that 35% of Croatia was occupied...?? Are you for real??? Those people had lived in their homes for 600 years.
Lets go back to WW2 and remind you that the nazi state of Croatia murdered anything up to one million civilians.....just for being Serbian, Jewish or Roma.
But they didnt finish the job, so in 1995 the same Croatia cleansed up to 300,000 civilians from their homes.
And here you are now justifying mass murder and ethnic cleansing by spewing out some sort of occupation.
Your comment is a disgrace and shame on you........
