Breakup of Yugoslavia
You still keep writing about problems in Yugoslavia from only Croatia’s point of view. In your article (Oct. 31), you referred to Dubrovnik as a “Croatian” port. It would take only one look at the map of Yugoslavia prior to World War II to see the truth of the matter.
Prior to World War II, Yugoslavia was divided in nine “counties” and Dubrovnik was in the “county” that included today’s republic of Montenegro. The map would also show the true size of Croatia, not the Croatia of today, whose borders were redrawn by the Croatian dictator Tito. From day one, Tito worked on creating a “greater” Croatia by annexing regions of Krajina, Dalmatia, Slovenia, etc.
