The reply was that such actions were taken in extreme cases and in zones which had been previously determined for that purpose. Croatia has protested and will continue to protest against NATO planes' breaking the sound barrier above inhabited areas, Granic added. The NATO operation in Yugoslavia has caused extensive damage to Croatia's economy, amounting to more than US$1.7 billion, Premier Zlatko Matesa said, answering a question by Vlado Jukic (Croatian Party of Rights, HSP). The international community should in compensating Croatia for the damage, Matesa said, adding though he was not optimistic. The three-year-long experience with the international community in reconstruction and donors' conferences has shown that many things had been promised but few were actually granted, he added. Considering its level of democratic development or the state of its armed forces, Croatia should be in the Partnership for Peace. However, this is a political decision which will be adopted when the international community deems it favourable, Matesa said, answering Jukic's question regarding the process of Croatia's integration into the Partnership for Peace. The perception of Croatia as a safe country is what can bring tourism back to Croatia, Matesa said speaking about the situation in tourism. The Government supports the programme of Tourism Minister Ivan Herak, which contains measures for promotion and incentives. The incentives refer to the rescheduling and a moratorium on obligations of hotel companies. A program like this one has already been drawn up for central Dalmatia and another one is being prepared for southern Croatia, the Premier said. Answering a question by Srecko Bijelic (Croatian People's Party, HNS), Matesa said the Government would soon send to the Parliament a strategy of economic development, which would represent a good basis for parliamentary discussion.
