ZAGREB, March 17 (Hina) - Croatia's President Stjepan Mesic will travel to Slovenia on Sunday on his first official visit abroad since he became Croatian President. Slovenia as Mesic's first destination has not been chosen by chance.
Slovenia and Croatia are tied with "the joint history and centuries-long tradition of friendship between the two peoples and now between the two nations," said a source close to President Mesic. The first day of his stay on Sunday is an unofficial and private part of the visit. Mesic will attend the finals in the World Cup Ski Jumping on Mount Planica and in the evening he will take part in a political and satirical show in the Ljubljana puppet theatre. On Monday he will hold official talks with Slovene President Milan Kucan, Premier Janez Drnovsek and other senior officials.(hina) jn ms
