The delivery was organised by the Interior Ministry.
The pumps will reach Prague tonight, Civil Protection deputy
commander Petar Vitas said. He explained the delivery did not
decrease the security of Croatian citizens in case pumps were
needed here as well.
The Interior Ministry is in touch with the Czech Embassy in Zagreb
and NATO's Euro-Atlantic centre coordinating assistance in times
of disasters, and is ready to offer the Czech Republic further
assistance if needed, said Vitas.
