During the interview between Gordana Katana and Mario Karamatic, delegate of the Croat People in PA of BiH, published in “Oslobodjenje”, on 22 Sep 2015 where Mr. Karamtic was asked to express his opinion on public RTV Broadcasting service Mr. Karamatic stated: “I never mentioned the name of Babic due to his professionalism, but rather in context of fascist politics he had been conducting for years on FTV. I reckon Babic is a good journalist and he would make a solid cable carrier in forthcoming RTV Herceg – Bosna. Generally, entire law on public RTV was imposed by force by the OHR and its representative. This law placed BHRT as roof organization within corporation consisting of RTRS and FTV which shall operate through two channels; with one of them being predominantly Croat and the other one predominantly Bosniak”.
