Context
Miroslav Škoro is unresolved. Zoran Milanović is the live dual-executive counterpart. ukraine-war is not attached.
Signatures 9 May; confidence 17 May 2024. Store the Sabor vote. Keep Sabor confirms Plenković’s third cabinet with the Homeland Movement on 2024-05-17 separate from neighbouring 7 April 2017 Lex Agrokor, 19 October 2016 first cabinet, 17 May 2024 third cabinet, and 15 November 2024 Beroš dismissal.
The Prime Minister of Croatia proposes the cabinet, survives Sabor confidence votes, and is HDZ president. He does not sit as EPPO, as the extraordinary administrator of Agrokor, or as the European Commission. A 17 May 2024 vote is not authorship of every later minister file. An associate’s EPPO search is not a completed personal conviction unless a court so holds on its own row.
Why it matters
The path is HDZ longevity priced on a Homeland Movement coalition, not a Ukraine-war row.

What the sources establish
OSW recorded that the Serb SDSS was excluded from the new cabinet.

Established: The Sabor confirmed the third cabinet with Homeland Movement on 17 May 2024, as recorded by OSW, after POLITICO recorded the signature arithmetic.
Not established: A unique four-year stability coefficient, or that every later minister dismissal was already enacted that afternoon.
The Sabor voted. Homeland Movement supplied the named arithmetic. SDSS did not sit in the new cabinet.. A later repeal, court stay, or successor order would be a different Fact with a different date. That pair identifies Sabor confirms Plenković’s third cabinet with the Homeland Movement, not a later speech about Sabor confirms Plenković’s third cabinet with the Homeland Movement.
Co-authors and later implementers named in Context remain on the file. If a later repeal, stay, or successor instrument exists, it needs its own date and its own row. The contribution described on this Person row is limited to He was the mandatar and HDZ president. The Sabor voted. SDSS did not sit in the new cabinet. That limit is the alternative to treating office-holding as authorship of every later series.
