Seks started his two-day official visit to Montenegro with talks with his host.
"On behalf of the Sabor (Croatian Parliament), I welcome the memorandum by the Croatian-Montenegrin Council, which was signed by both governments and which concerns partial compensation of war damage," Seks said at a joint press conference, adding that Zagreb had not yet sent an official claim to Podgorica.
Under the memorandum, Montenegro paid 375,000 euro to the Konavle region of southern Croatia in damages for the looting of livestock during the 1991-1995 war. Direct property damage in the Konavle region is estimated at least 35 million euro.
"Montenegro was taken advantage of in the war and feels the moral obligation to at least symbolically compensate for the damage done," Krivokapic said, noting that Podgorica had not set time limits for the payment of war reparations.
Under the 1991 Croatian parliament resolution on armed aggression against Croatia, Montenegro was not declared an aggressor, but in a subsequent declaration Podgorica was named an aggressor against Croatia, Seks said.
"Never again will Montenegro destroy or invade other people's land nor will it be a part of a project that would cause damage to other Southern Slavic nations," Krivokapic said.
Seks said that the steps taken by Montenegro, including the partial payment of damages and the construction of a kindergarten in Dubrovnik, were good steps towards moral and political satisfaction. He added that the idea of Croatian ownership stakes in Montenegrin companies should be "calmly considered by both governments."
The two parliament speakers said that the provisional agreement on the borders was being implemented without any problems and that the two governments were willing to reach a lasting agreement on the borders soon.
Seks and Krivokapic spoke in favour of regional cooperation and good neighbourly relations, supporting the aspirations of the two countries to join Euro-Atlantic integration processes.
Seks invited his host to attend a conference of parliament speakers of the Southeast Europe Cooperation Process (SEECP), which is scheduled to take place in Zagreb in April.
