About the attempt to establish a Croatian committee in Switzerland in 1943. The diplomatic reports of Josip Milković of Senj

Summary/Abstract: By organising five previously unpublished diplomatic reports of the Permanent Trade Delegation of the Independent State of Croatia in Zürich from 1943, the author completes the picture of Croatian-Swiss relations during the Second World War and the business of the Croatian diplomatic service. The reports provide a range of interesting information not only about their creator Josip Milkovi!, once one of the pre-war Ustasha organisation, but also aboutCroatian politicians and public figures, such as the sculptor Ivan Meštrović who for the last two years of the war was in Switzerland, and especially university professor Vinko Krišković, the Croatian intellectual and politician who during wartime, despite the objections made by the Ustasha regime, sought to ensure the survival of an independent Croatia. In this context, the ide ais discussed that in Switzerland in 1943 an émigré Croatian Committee, which would work for the survival of a Croatian state was organised.
