ROME, Nov 1 (Hina) - Italian Foreign Minister Renato Ruggiero has
invited Croatian Ambassador to Rome Drago Kraljevic to visit
Farnesina, the seat of the Italian Foreign Ministry, Italian daily
'Piccolo' said in its Thursday's issue.
According to the daily, the previously announced visit of the
Italian Foreign Ministry official Robert Antonioni to Zagreb has
been delayed. The daily says the meeting with Croatian Prime
Minister Ivica Racan has already been arranged, but Farnesina
changed the tactics and invited the Croatian Ambassador instead.
Ambassador Kraljevic confirmed on Thursday he had visited
Farnesina, and added that talks on overcoming the current situation
in the Croatia-Italy relations would continue in the near future.
According to 'Piccolo', Ruggiero believes that Croatia's reaction
to a decision of the Italian president to confer a gold medal for war
merits on the 1943 Italian government of Zadar due to the suffering
of the town during World War II shellings by the Allies was unjust.
The daily reported that the Ruggiero-Kraljevic talks were held on
Wednesday.
