SLOVENIA RECEIVES CROATIA'S COMMENTS ON DECREE ON KRSKO

( Editorial: --> 6696 ) LJUBLJANA, Aug 28 (Hina) - Slovenia has received Croatia's written criticism on the text of a decree the Slovene government reached that the Krsko nuclear power plant be turned into a Slovene public company. The agreement that Croatia should send written comments to Slovenia was reached at a recent meeting between the Slovene and Croatian foreign and economy ministers. According to the Slovene radio, Croatia expressed negative views on 15 articles of the total of 36 articles contained in the decree. Most important criticism pertains to the ownership structure. Croatia has requested that the ownership of the power plant remain at the 50:50 relation (50 per cent owned by Slovenia, 50 per cent by Croatia), and that Croatia's status as cofounder of the power plant be maintained.
