		Gotovina's escape, however, is not the only reason why Rahim Ademi could easily remain in the Hague detention unit, regardless of the Croatian government guarantees that the general will return if required.
		Ademi's problem is that the current poor relations between the Hague court and the Croatian government could deteriorate even further, and the reason for that could be Drazen Budisa's comeback to the post of president of the Croatian Social Liberal Party, the second strongest group in the ruling five-member coalition.
		Thus Carla del Ponte was led on by a plan made by Tudjman and the late senior Croatian official, Gojko Susak: the two, in fact, decided as early as 1993 to lay all the blame for the massacre near Gospic on Ademi, although he had almost no influence on this particular operation.

		The Croatian minister claimed his country's support for the tribunal was absolute and that its failure to arrest general Ante Gotovina should not affect Ademi.
