Zvonimir Šeparović

Zvonimir Šeparović

Zvonimir Šeparović is a Croatian legal scholar and politician.

Šeparović used to be professor of International Law at the University of Zagreb. He was also known as the pioneer of victimology and very vocal opponent of death penalty.

Although he lacked any formal party or political affiliation, in 1991 became foreign minister in the "National Government" government of Franjo Gregurić. He was sacked by President Franjo Tuđman over alleged diplomatic gaffe. He was in disagreement with Tuđman regarding the foreign policy and he gained in popularity which Tuđman found threatening.

Šeparović remained active in public life and in 2000 entered presidential race. He finished last and, immediately after being informed about projected results, urged his supporters to vote for Dražen Budiša in the second round.

Zvonimir Šeparović is married to Branka Šeparović, a Croatian Radiotelevision TV reporter.
