Tudjman, Franjo
Tudjman, Franjo (1922–1999) Croatian politician, President of Croatia as a federal republic of Yugoslavia (1990–92) and as an independent state since 1992. Imprisoned in the 1970s and 1980s for his advocacy of Croatian independence, he led the Croatian forces in the fight against the Serb-led Yugoslavian army (1991–92) and involved Croatian forces in the civil war in Bosnia-Herzegovina. He was re-elected President in 1997, although the election was criticized for his total control of the media.
