VIENNA, Nov 14 (Hina) - The strengthening of ties between Croatia
and Croats abroad, better cooperation with Croatia, especially in
culture and economy were the focuses of a meeting between Croatian
Ambassador to Austria, Ivan Ilic, and his associates, with
representatives of Croat associations in Austria.
The joint appearance of all Croat associations in Austria is one of
priority tasks not only to obtain financial support from the state,
but also to better represent Croats and Croatia in Austria.
Croat associations in Austria have not managed to agree on a joint
appearance in the country in the past nine years.
Participants of the meeting suggested the establishment of a joint,
independent and non-party commission, which would coordinate the
work of the associations, represent their interests in Austrian
institutions, which would also mean obtaining financial support
for their work.
