NEW YORK, Sept 18 (Hina) - Croatian President Stjepan Mesic who arrived in New York to attend the United Nations General Assembly's annual meeting, on Monday visited the New York Stock Exchange and after that the Ground Zero.

According to a press release issued by the NYSE, it "today opened its doors to the Croatian delegation of government officials led by His Excellency Stjepan Mesic, President of Croatia."

"We are privileged to host the President of Croatia, H.E. Stjepan Mesic, and his delegation to the New York Stock Exchange," said NYSE Group, Inc. CEO John A. Thain. This visit is an important step in partnering with Croatia and we look forward to adding the first Croatian company to our family of listed companies."

Mesic was quoted in the press release as saying that his previous impression was "that only huge companies appear on the NYSE, but today I learned there are also mid-sized and small companies, so there is an opportunity for Croatian companies here."

When asked to comment on being given the honor to open the day at the stock exchange, President Mesic said, "I have to admit, I didn't think that would ever happen. I only saw that in the movies, and today I am the leading star."
