A Serbian social activist is sure that the Ustasha coats of arms on the jerseys of the Croatian national team were not an accident
The Chairman of the Union of Serbs of the region, Miodrag Linta, does not consider it an accident that the Croatian national team performed in T-shirts with the coat of arms of the Ustashe NDH in four games of the European Football Championship.
The social activist and human rights activist drew attention to the fact that the leadership of the Croatian Football Union (HNS) has never hidden its sympathy for the ideas of Ustashism, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.

Midrag Linta named statement Croatian Football Association that there was an unintentional mistake when printing the coat of arms on the football kit is “an obvious lie and the highest hypocrisy.”
“It is quite clear that this was done with the intention of promoting the Ustaše coat of arms in a major sporting competition, since the President of the Croatian Football Union Davor Šuker, the selector Zlatko Dalic, almost all Croatian football players are followers of the Ustaše ideology, honoring the Ustaše villains as fighters for the freedom of Croatia,” said Linta.
The social activist recalled that Šuker has repeatedly proven that he is an ardent supporter of the Ustashe regime, in particular, speaking as a football player for Real Madrid in 1996, he was photographed at the grave of the head (Führer) of the NDH, Ante Pavelic, and then stated that he was proud of it. While for Zlatko Dalic and most of the national team players, according to him, the idol is the neo-Nazi singer Marko "Thompson" Perkovic.
