Summary
Miroslav Akmadža: Krunoslav Draganović
Statements to communist investigators
Krunoslav Draganović (1903-1983), priest, historian and politician, is one of the most controversial figures in recent Croatian church and political history. Since May 1941, he has been a member of the Directorate of the Institute for Colonization, and as an emissary of the NDH in the spring and summer of 1941 in occupied Serbia and Macedonia, he helped captured Croatian soldiers of the former Yugoslav army return to their homeland. At the end of August 1943, he was assigned to the Croatian representation at the Holy See to assist the Caritas of the Zagreb Archdiocese and the Croatian Red Cross in the release, treatment and transfer of arrested and imprisoned Croats from Italy after its capitulation. Establishes a connection and delivers submissions (1944 and 1945-) to British and American diplomats in Rome, and to the Allied High Command for the Mediterranean, in which they demand the preservation of Croatian state independence and an exit for the Croatian armed forces and refugees from the NDH. The end of the war and the collapse of the NDH found him in Rome. With the knowledge of the Vatican, he visits prison camps in Italy and Austria where Croatian refugees are located and helps them.
Researching through various archival funds, the author found in the Croatian State Archives, the Fund of the State Security Service of the Republican Secretariat of Internal Affairs of the Republic of Croatia, records of Krunoslav Draganović's statements before communist investigators, after his mysterious return to Yugoslavia in September 1967.
These statements are the main basis of this books.
