Democratic Alliance of Croats in Vojvodina

Political party in Serbia

The Democratic Alliance of Croats in Vojvodina (Croatian: Demokratski savez Hrvata u Vojvodini, DSHV; Serbian Cyrillic: Демократски савез Хрвата у Војводини) is a political party in Serbia, representing the Croat ethnic minority in the province of Vojvodina.[1]

History

Over time, some party members were unsatisfied with party's policy, so they separated and formed new Croat parties:

In 2009 DSHV negotiated with another ethnic Croat party from the Syrmia region of Vojvodina, the Hrvatska srijemska inicijativa / Hrvatska sremska inicijativa (Croatian Syrmian Initiative). It was planned that HSI and DSHV would unite on 5 June 2009 at a meeting in Sremska Mitrovica.[2]

It has occasionally condemned attacks by Serbian nationalists, and it has issued protests over ethnic assimilation.[3][4] It is also supportive of further autonomism.[5]
