ZAGREB, March 15 (Hina) - Croatia's Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for the Family, War Veterans Affairs and Inter-Generational Solidarity, Jadranka Kosor, and UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Louise Arbour held talks in Geneva on Tuesday on the protection and promotion of human rights with emphasis on the protection of women and children, the government's public relations office said in a statement.

Kosor, who met the UN official during a recess in the 61st session of the UN Human Rights Commission in Geneva, is scheduled to give a talk on people trafficking at the session later today.

Croatia, a country in transition, last year registered only 19 cases of people trafficking, of which only four involved Croatian citizens, Kosor told Arbour.

People smuggling is one of the most severe problems of today which I was able to see for myself during my recent visit to Russia, Arbour said and added that the issue required maximum international cooperation.

The Croatian official thanked the UN commissioner for the support of her office to the establishment of a human rights centre in Croatia, which should become an independent institution next year.

Kosor also informed the UN official of the Croatian government's achievements in the protection of human rights. She said Croatia had established offices of children's ombudswoman and ombudswoman for gender equality. She said than an ombudsman for disabled people wold be appointed in the near future.
