LJUBLJANA, Nov 13 (Hina) - Slovene President Janez Drnovsek said on
Thursday the Croatian government's decision to begin preparations
for arbitration on the sea border should be viewed in the light of
parliamentary elections in Croatia later this month. #L#
"We have discussed the possibility of arbitration on several
occasions, but an agreement on arbitration is not simple. We'll see
what to do next after the elections in Croatia because it seems to me
that an initiative coming two weeks before the elections should be
viewed in the context thereof," Drnovsek told reporters after
meeting Polish President Alexandar Kwasniewski in Ljubljana.
Slovenia's government has still not reacted to the Croatian
government's decision to begin preparations for international
arbitration on the sea border.
STA news agency quoted the Slovene foreign ministry as saying it had
been notified about the decision only via the media.
