CROATIAN PRESIDENT RECEIVES COUNCIL OF EUROPE REPS.

ZAGREB, Oct 12 (Hina) - Croatia's President Franjo Tudjman on Sunday received the Council of Europe Parliamentary Assembly monitoring committee's delegation that consisted of the committee's head, Guido de Marco, rapporteurs Gunnar Jansson and Hanna Suchocka and secretary, John Hartland. The Council of Europe representatives notified President Tudjman of their impressions they had got during the visit to Croatia, the Croatian President's office said in a statement. The Council of Europe delegation also said that the country was taking the good path. President Tudjman expressed his belief that the Council of Europe officials had gained more objective insight into Croatia, as it was sometimes forgotten that this country had already achieved much in all fields important for the Council of Europe, after it had experienced the Communist system and had been exposed to the aggression. Present at the meeting were Croatian Foreign Minister Mate Granic, a Vice President of the Parliament House of Representatives and the head of Croatia's parliamentary delegation to the Council of Europe, Zarko Domljan, an MP and a member of that Croatian parliamentary delegation, Zdravka Busic, and Tudjman's foreign affairs advisor, Neven Madey.
