"Facilities on Prevlaka offer countless possibilities for the
development of tourism in this area. It only remains to devise ways
to put them to use as soon as possible so Croatia's tourism can make
a major step forward," Mesic said.
Mesic was accompanied by Tourism Minister Pave Zupan Ruskovic, the
prefect of Dubrovnik County, and the head of Konavle municipality.
After he visited Prevlaka, Mesic headed towards the border crossing
of Konfin to pay a visit to Montenegro. He was welcomed at Konfin by
Montenegrin President Filip Vujanovic. Upon his arrival at Kotor,
Mesic was welcomed by Montenegrin Premier Milo Djukanovic and
Croatia's general consul to Montenegro, Petar Poljanic.
After he tours the town and visits its St. Tryphon's Cathedral and
Maritime Museum, Mesic will visit the Croatian general consulate
and meet representatives of Montenegrin Croat associations.
