Milosevic unveiled his programme on his website. He said that despite its past mistakes, the HDZ remained a pivotal party that had promoted all strategic national interests from the time Croatia gained independence twenty years ago until its entry into NATO and its forthcoming accession to the European Union. He said he intended to restore the shaken confidence in the party and in politics in general by relying on new people, especially young people, and on new initiatives.

"I want to increase the number of young people in the Presidency and in Parliament, and to guarantee their active participation by the party's statute," Milosevic said, adding that the HDZ should also ensure a higher representation of women in leading roles. He said that the party should pay more attention to what its members and local government officials were saying.

Milosevic said that the HDZ, as a centre-right party, should be in charge of economic development of the country based on sound, socially responsible and free enterprise as the only guarantor of progress. He called for lower taxes to stimulate growth and achieve economic prosperity, adding that he believed in "a strong state that will set a framework and clear rules of the game, never standing in the way of a healthy enterprising spirit in the economy and all branches of life."

Noting that "the Croatian diaspora made an immeasurable contribution to the independence and freedom of the country," Milosevic said that a new way should be found of promoting cooperation with Croats and their descendants living abroad.
