The President of the Republic Zoran Milanović met today at the Office of the President with ambassadors, consuls general, consuls and military envoys of the Republic of Croatia who attended an annual conference of Croatian diplomats in Zagreb.

President Milanović spoke with Croatian diplomats about the key topics of Croatian foreign policy, with special emphasis on relations with Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia, and about Croatia’s position in the current crisis caused by Russia’s aggression against Ukraine. Speaking about relations with Bosnia and Herzegovina, President Milanović reiterated the crucial importance of the Dayton Agreement as a treaty on the division of power and authority that must be respected.

“Croatia’s position today is stronger than ever, but we must use it and not just talk about it. As a state, Croatia has strong instruments at its disposal, and we must act that way,” President Milanović told Croatian diplomats.

In addition to some one hundred Croatian ambassadors, consuls general, consuls and military envoys, representatives of the Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs and officials of the Office of the President were also present at the meeting.
