>> Sanader pismom optužio Kosor da vodi progon protiv njega

Vaša Ekselencijo,

Nakon dva desetljeća političkog angažmana i desetljeća na čelu HDZ-a, stranke koju sam reformirao, uveo u Europsku pučku stranku i s kojom sam 2003. i 2007. pobijedio na državnim izborima, 2009. godine sam odlučio napustiti aktivnu politiku. Formiranje dvaju vlada u dva uzastopna mandata smatram svojim najvećim međunarodnim uspjehom: uvođenje Hrvatske u NATO i u Europsku Uniju, baš kao i u UN-ovo Vijeće sigurnosti kao nestalnu članicu u 2008. i 2009. godini. Također sam vodio uspješnu politiku kompletnog normaliziranja odnosa, pomirenja i pomoći našim susjedima za ulazak u Euro-Atlantske integracijske procese. U Vladu sam uveo predstavnike manjina kao koalicijske partnere, s oporbenim socijaldemokratima sam stvorio Savez za Europu preko koje smo kreirali potpuno novu, tolerantniju i konstruktivnu atmosferu u našem društvu. Uspješno smo implementirali mnoge reforme, od ekonomskih do sudskih kako bi pripremili Hrvatsku za članstvo u Europskoj uniji te kako bi modernizirali našu državu.
Vladajuća koalicija je bila snažna, a program je već bio čvrsto postavljen nakon pobjede na izborima 2007. S višemjesečnom blokadom pregovora s EU kojima se ne vidi kraj, došao sam do zaključka kako bi moja ostavka malo protresla pregovarački postupak i pomogla olakšati deblokadom pregovora što se točno i dogodilo. Prije mog odlaska imenovao sam gospođu Jadranku Kosor kao moju nasljednicu na mjestu predsjednice Vlade i stranke iz razloga što je bila moja zamjenica u stranci deset godina, a u Vladi šest godina. Ponosan na ono što sam postigao za Hrvatsku, mislio sam da je došlo vrijeme da se povučem iz politike, radim na mojim memoarima, održavam predavanja na stranim ustanovama te zaposliti se u konzultantskim poslovima.
Međutim, nedugo nakon mog odlaska s čela Vlade i stranke protiv mene su pokrenuti potpuno nerazumljiv napadi. To se nastavlja i danas a kulminiralo je posljednjih nekoliko dana kao neviđen skandal u demokratskim zemljama. Bivši potpredsjednik Vlade Polančec je 15. listopada 2010. proglašen krivim u jednom postupku na prvostupanjskom sudu i dobio zatvorsku kaznu o 15 mjeseci. Tri tjedna prije toga, međutim, u razgovoru s zamjenikom Predsjednika Sabora Vladimirom Šeksom, Polančecu je rečeno da će mu presuda biti znatno manja ukoliko mene lažno optuži. Ubrzo nakon tih razgovora s gospođom Kosor i gospodinom Šeksom, Polančec je ovjerio izjavu o njihovim traženjima kod javnog bilježnika. Ostaje da se vidi hoće li državne institucije pokrenuti istragu na račun tvrdnji gospodina Polančeca.

Sve je ovo velika katastrofa za razvoj demokracije u Hrvatskoj i nema apsolutno ništa s nezavisnim sudstvom i pravosudnim reformama koje smo provodili punih deset godina u cijeloj zemlji. Upravo suprotno, ovo je veliki korak unatrag!
Razlog za ovakvo nedemokratsko i neustavno ponašanje mojih donedavnih kolega najvjerojatnije leži u želji da na bilo koji način spriječe moj povratak u politiku. Međutim, aktivnu politiku sam napustio svojom slobodnom voljom: ponosan na ono što sam učinio za Hrvatsku i naše susjedne države i zahvalan na pomoći i potpori koju ste mi pružali tijekom teških vremena. Apsolutno nisam imao namjeru vraćati se politiku što ilustrira činjenica da sve do sada nisam želio aktivirati moj mandat u Saboru.

Your Excellency,

In 2009 I decided to leave active politics after almost two decades of political engagement and a decade as the head of HDZ; a party I reformed, brought into the European People´s Party, and with which I won elections in 2003 and 2007. Forming two governments in two consecutive mandates I accomplished our most important foreign policy goals: bringing Croatia into NATO and to the EU, as well asinto the UN Security Council as a non-permanent member fort he term 2008-2009. I also led a successful policy of complete normalization of relations, reconciliation and assistance to our neighbors in their Euro-Atlantic integration processes. I invited into the government representatives of national minorities as coaliton partners, and created with the Social Democrat opposition the Allicance for Europe, trough which we created a completely new, more tolerant and constructive atmosphere in our society. We successfully implemented many reforms, from the economy to the judiciary, to prepare Croatia for EU membership and to modernize our country.
The governing coalition was strong, and the program was already cemented in the 2007 electoral victory. With EU negotiations blocked for many months and with no end in sight, I came to the realization that my resignation from politics would shake up the negotiation process and help facilitate in the unblocking of negotiations, which is exactly what occurred. Before my departure I choose Ms. Jadranka Kosor as my successor fort he head of government and the party, as she had been my deputy in the party for ten years and my deputy in the government for six years. Proud of what I accomplished for Croatia, I thougt the time had come to withdraw from politics, work on my memoirs, hold lectures at foreign institutions and engage myself in the consulting business.
However, not long after my departure as the head of the government and the party a completely incomprehensible confrontation was initiated against me. This continues even today, and has culminated over these last few days a yet unseen scandal among democratic countries. Former Deputy Prime Minister Polančec was found guilty on one matter in a court of first instance on Friday 15 October 2010, and was given a jail sentence of 15 months. Three weeks prior to this, however, in a conversation with Prime Minister Kosor and Deputy Speaker of de Parliament Vladimir Šeks, he was told what his sentence would be and that this verdict would be significantly reduced if he would falsely accuse me. Shortly after these discussions with Ms. Kosor and Mr. Šeks, Mr. Polancec verified a statement regarding what they had demanded of him at a notary public. It remains to be seen if state institutions in this case will initiate an investigation into Mr. Polančec’s allegations.

All of this is catastrophically disastrous for he development of democracy in Croatia and has absolutely nothing to do with an independent judiciary or judicial reform, which we have been implementing for a full 10 years in the country. To the contrary, this is a major step back!
The reason for this undemocratic and unconstitutional behavior of my until-recent colleagues most probably lies in their wish to prevent my return to politics trough any means possible. However, I left active politics on my own free will: proud of what I did for Croatia and our neighboring countries, and thankful for he assistance and support you extended to me during some difficult times. I had absolutely no intention of returning to politics, which is illustrated by the fact that until today I did not want to activate my mandate in the parliament.
