Foreign minister, German officials discuss Croatia's EU readiness

ZAGREB, March 18 (Hina) - Croatian Foreign and European Affairs Minister Vesna Pusic on Monday held talks with the Bundesrat commissioner for European Union enlargement and Berlin Deputy Mayor Frank Henkel and Saxony State Minister for Justice and European Affairs Juregen Martens, about Croatia's readiness to the join the EU, her ministry said.

Pusic said Croatia had met all the requirements stated in the European Commission's autumn report, including the hardest one regarding the shipyards, adding that Enlargement Commissioner Stefan Fuele would present the final report on Croatia at a government session in Zagreb next week.

Pusic voiced confidence that the report would be positive.

Martens congratulated Croatia and Slovenia on the signing of a memorandum of understanding and solving the Ljubljanska Banka issue.

The German officials were interested in Croatia's relations with the region. Pusic said Croatia's upcoming EU accession was an "enlargement round with a task" - the stabilisation of the region.

Henkel and Martens said the announcement of imposing post-accession monitoring for Croatia that appeared in the media last week was "an isolated and individual opinion and not the position of the German government".

Pusic said that Croatia, because of the EU's experience in previous enlargement rounds, had stricter criteria and benchmarks for the opening and closing of the negotiation chapters, as well as a separate chapter on the judiciary.
