This work presents some legal acts passed and initiatives launched by the Croatian government the aim of which was to protect the rights of the national minorities in Croatia and reach an agreement with the representatives of the Serbs in Croatia so as to avoid armed conflict. The facts presented in this work are important in the context of any given analysis about the issue of whether the Serbs were marginalized with the change of government in Croatia in 1990 and whether their armed rebellion was caused by actions made by the Croatian government and President Tuđman or came as a result of careful planning by proponents of the idea of Greater Serbia. We used a number of documents from the archival material of the Republic of Serbian Krajina to show what had been said and written about President Tuđman in the first half of the 1990s by political and military representatives of those Croatian Serbs that rebelled against the Croatian government and participated in the armed aggression against the Republic of Croatia. We describe how the Serb leadership in the temporarily occupied areas of Croatia accused the Croatian government and Franjo Tuđman of conducting criminal and "national-Fascist" policies against the Serbs and present the facts that completely debunk the accusations. These facts include official documents issued and decisions reached by the Croatian government about protecting the national minorities in Croatia during the mandate of President Tuđman. The work ends with the conclusion that the mentioned accusations were launched for the purpose of creating a greater Serbian state by homogenizing the Serbs. ; This work presents some legal acts passed and initiatives launched by the Croatian government the aim of which was to protect the rights of the national minorities in Croatia and reach an agreement with the representatives of the Serbs in Croatia so as to avoid armed conflict.

Kritički prikaz

Među datumima koji se u kronologiji Domovinskoga rata ne smiju zanemariti, jer se tada dogodilo nešto što je znatno utjecalo na daljnji
tijek događaja u Hrvatskoj, jest 2. svibnja 1991. godine. Toga je dana u
Borovu Selu kraj Vukovara u Slavoniji i u Polači kraj Zadra u Dalmaciji
iz zasjede ubijeno 13 hrvatskih policajaca, što je znatno pogoršalo već
složenu sigurnosnu i političku situaciju u Hrvatskoj. Radi razumijevanja okolnosti ("konteksta vremena") u kojima su počinjena spomenuta ubojstva u radu će se ukratko osvrnuti na uzroke raspada Socijalističke Federativne Republike Jugoslavije i na početak procesa demokratizacije suvremene Republike Hrvatske nakon višestranačkih izbora
u travnju i svibnju 1990. te prikazati neke reakcije srpskih ekstremista na spomenuti proces, koje su prethodile ubojstvima 2. svibnja 1991., kao i reakciju hrvatske vlasti i Predsjedništva Socijalističke Federativne Republike Jugoslavije, odnosno vodstva Srbije
i Jugoslavenske narodne armije na spomenuti događaj. Naime, nakon toga krvoprolića Predsjedništvo Socijalističke Federativne Republike Jugoslavije na sjednici od 7. do 9. svibnja 1991. pravno je omogućilo, zapravo legaliziralo, uporabu Jugoslavenske narodne armije u Hrvatskoj, službeno radi sprečavanja daljnjih sukoba. Spomenuta ubojstva, koja treba promatrati i u kontekstu pokušaja pobunjenih Srba u Hrvatskoj da izazovu reakciju Jugoslavenske narodne armije i uvođenje izvanrednoga stanja, uvela su Hrvatsku u razdoblje ni rata ni mira. Zapravo je 2. svibnja 1991. postalo jasno da su šanse za mirno rješenje hrvatsko-srpskih prijepora u Hrvatskoj sve manje.
