BUDAPEST, April 3 (Hina) - Croatia and Hungary have a number of
common political and economic interests, which was why their
cooperation was developing in a very favourable direction,
government delegations of the two countries said at a meeting in
Budapest on Wednesday.
The Croatian delegation, headed by Assistant Foreign Minister
Hidajet Biscevic, met the Secretary of State at Hungary's Foreign
Ministry, Istvan Szent-Ivanyi, his deputy Janos Toth and other
senior Foreign Ministry officials for talks on bilateral
cooperation, the situation in the occupied areas of eastern Croatia
and the peace process in Bosnia-Herzegovina.
The talks also focused on preparations for a meeting in Zagreb
of Croatian Foreign Minister Mate Granic and his Hungarian
counterpart Laszlo Kovacs.
Biscevic told reporters after the talks that Hungary was ready
for the start of bilateral talks on free trade zones, which was in
line with Croatia's plans to join the Central European Free Trade
Association (CEFTA).
"We've also discussed the final definition of the role of the
(northern Adriatic) port of Rijeka as part of joint trade
cooperation," Biscevic said.
"The Hungarian side has confirmed that it wants to realize an
important part of its economic interests through transport links
with Croatia," he added.
