According to the latest announcement by the State Electoral Commission (DIP) on the results of Wednesday's parliamentary election held in Croatia, the votes from 86.85% of polling stations had been counted by midnight. The HDZ party has 61 seats, while the SDP party coalition Rivers of Justice remains at 42 seats.

This means that the right-wing party Domovinski pokret (DP) has won 13 seats, the party coalition Most 11, Mozemo 10, the coalition Istrian Democratic Party (IDS) 3, NP Sjever 2 and the coalition Fokus-Republika 1.

The chairman of the Domovinski pokret (DP), Ivan Penava, expressed his satisfaction with the DP’s results in Wednesday’s parliamentary elections, which show that the DP is the third strongest Croatian party, and reiterated that co-operation with the Independent Democratic Serbian Party and We Can! is out of the question for the DP.

On Thursday, the DP will “sit down and talk about what cards they (the election participants) have to play,” he said in reference to possible coalitions after the elections.

He reiterated his party’s position that co-operation with the Independent Serbian Democratic Party (SDSS) or the green-left party Mozemo! is out of the question.

Penava also said that the final number of parliamentary seats that this right-wing party would win could exceed the current number of seats,
