Dario Zurovec, an independent Member of Parliament and Mayor of Sveta Nedelja, has established a new political party called ‘Hrvatski put - platforma nezavisnih’ (Croatian Way - Independent Platform). 

The movement is currently focused on the ‘Zagreb ring,’ organizing independent mayors and local officials within the Zagreb County area. Key figures involved in the founding include Nenad Panian, the Mayor of Dugo Selo, and Marko Magdić, the head of the Križ municipality. The party intends to serve as a platform for independent lists and individuals, with plans to expand its influence beyond Zagreb County into regions such as Primorsko-goranska, Zagorje, and Splitsko-dalmatinska.
