Zuzul To Become Advisor To Jure Radic

Text

HDZ Parliamentary representative and former foreign affairs minister Miomir Zuzul will soon become IGH reinforcement.

Although Zuzul is a psychologist by vocation, IGH director Jure Radic believes it is no obstacle because he expects of him to contribute to the Institute with his political and economic ties when it comes to engagements abroad.

But, the decision on his transfer will not be reached for a few months, and as Radic claims, it is usual that large companies hire former prominent politicians with good lobby connections, the Jutarnji list daily writes.

At the same time he points out former prime minister Franjo Gregoric and Davor Stern as examples with good connections, and the goal of Jure Radic is to gather Croatian civil engineering companies in a common struggle against foreign competition.

-Zuzul is a good choice for us because it is extremely important to have acquaintances in economic and political circles. If you want to offer a deal, you will give it to the one you have confidence in. I am not talking about bypassing tenders, but of confidence in the people- said Jure Radic.
