DUBROVNIK, May 5 (Hina) - U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney, accompanied by his wife Lynne, will arrive in Croatia on Saturday for a three-day visit.

On the first day of his visit, Cheney will hold talks with Croatia's President Stjepan Mesic and Prime Minister Ivo Sanader in the southern seaside resort of Dubrovnik.

Dubrovnik will host a summit meeting of prime ministers of the U.S.-Adriatic Charter member states: Albania, Croatia and Macedonia, aspirants for NATO's membership, and the U.S. Vice President will attend this event on Sunday.

Cheney will be the highest official from the George W. Bush Administration to visit Croatia. In 2004, U.S. Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was in Croatia.

Extraordinary security measures have been carried out in the Croatian Adriatic city for the visit of this high-ranking U.S. official. These measures have included, among other things, the arrival of many U.S. security agents in Dubrovnik, the transport of bullet-proof vehicles by C-117 planes, and the "USS Enterpise" aircraft carrier has sailed in the Croatian part of the Adriatic Sea.

Ahead of Cheney's tour of Croatia, the U.S. State Department stated that the three signatories of the said charter, could expect an invitation to join NATO at its summit in 2008 provided that the aspirants succeeded in implementing necessary military and political reforms by that time.

Cheney is currently on tour of former Soviet Union republics, Lithuania and Kazakstan.

On Monday morning he will fly back to the United States from Dubrovnik.
