Zlatko Jušić (born 1949) was a Western Bosnian businessman and politician who served as Prime Minister of the Autonomous Province of Western Bosnia (APZB), a self-proclaimed autonomous region that later declared statehood in northwestern Bosnia during the Intra-Bosnian Muslim War (1993–1995).
Biography.
Zlatko Jušić grew up in Cazin. Before the political appointment, Jušić was the CEO of Medic, a company specialised in the manufacture and sale of medical equipment, in Ćoralići near Cazin.
On 27 September 1993, the constituent assembly of the APZB elected its government, appointing Jušić as Prime Minister and Fikret Abdić as President. On 26 July 1995, Western Bosnia declared independence. Still, it collapsed shortly after a joint military offensive by the Croatian Army (HV) and the Army of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina (ARBiH) during Operation Storm on 21 August 1995.
In the wake of Western Bosnia's collapse in August 1995, Jušić resided in Zagreb. After the war, he settled in Rijeka, Croatia. In 2007, he was arrested and charged with war crimes against civilians, but was acquitted in 2009.
