Linic thanked Danielsson for Sweden's contribution to
Croatia, as well as its advocating Croatia's freedom and
sovereignty, and for its support to Croatia on its way into
European organisations.
"Now that the war is over, the focus of bilateral relations
has to be put on the development of economic cooperation,
especially in tourism," Linic said.
Danielsson said that in the beginning of his term he had
been preoccupied with the care for displaced persons, but only in
the past year had he focused his full attention to the promotion
of business and other relations between the two countries.
He stressed the interest of the Swedish business people for
cooperating with the business people in Rijeka, and added that
Swedish tourists would very soon return to Croatia's Adriatic,
especially places offering services of health tourism.
