In the absence of direct access to Croatian archives, it is difficult to understand the positions defended by Ciliga on other questions, save indirectly by citing Croatian academic works. Thus, for example, on 19 September 1943, in Spremnost84, he published an article where, after the Italian defeat, he called for the integration of Istria into the Ustaša state "for the restoration and reinforcement of Ustaša political and cultural positions in Istria".
Así, por ejemplo, el 19 de septiembre de 1943 publicó en Spremnost un artículo donde, después de la hecatombe italiana, llamaba a la integración de Istria en Estado ustacha, "para la restauración y el refuerzo de posturas políticas y culturales ustaches en Istria" [84].
