No evidence for Croatian race claims

I reject the accusation of racism implicit in your News story "Race claims spark fury over Croatia's school curriculum" (Nature 437, 463; 2005). Claims that I am getting teachers to "promote the view that Croats are only distantly related to other Slavic populations such as the Serbs" and that I believe "Croats are more similar to Finns than other Slavs" come from newspapers that misinterpreted my words.
