ZAGREB, February 3, 2019 - Activists of the leftist political platform called "We Can" on Sunday held a news conference to announce the establishment of a new political party that will run in the European Parliament elections this May and in the next state-level elections in Croatia.
"The topics we are going to address focus on a new development based on investments in education, science, green industry, renewables, local communities' development and sustainable agriculture," said Tomislav Tomašević, a member of the Zagreb City Council, said at the news conference held in St. Mark's Square.
The initiating committee consists of 26 activists. "We have decided to become more politically active at the state level as we cannot watch any longer the political elites leading the country into a disaster," the Zagreb councillor said.
The activists' group introduces itself "a broad progressive new political platform which intends to bring together voters from the political spectrum ranging from the far-left, Green to social democracy".
