Hungary and Croatia wanted the process of peaceful
reintegration to be completed as soon as possible, the two
officials agreed, adding they supported the return of Croatian
displaced to their homes and the beginning of Croatia's economic
reconstruction.
Hungary was willing to participate in Croatia's economic
reconstruction, Tabajdin stressed. Hungary also wanted the pilot-
projects on the return of Croatia's displaced to include villages
which had majority Hungarian population before the war.
A police station with transitional police would be opened in
Bilje (northeast of Osijek, in the occupied region of Baranja),
Vrkic told his guest. UN Transitional Administrator in eastern
Slavonia, General Klein, had announced that the so-called 'Baranja
triangle' (western part of Baranja) would soon be handed over to
Croatian authorities.
The talks were also attended by the Hungarian Ambassador to
Croatia, Zsolt Szallay.
