The EU Council To Discuss Croatia’s ZERP at it’s Monday’s Session
Zagreb, February 18 (CP) – The European Union council, as announced earlier, is to sent out at warning to Croatia from it’s Monday’s session to refrain from implementing the Protected Ecology and Fisheries Belt (ZERP) against EU member-countries until a joint agreement is reached.
It is to call on Croatia to hold negotiations with Italy, Slovenia and the EU on the issue and once a deal is reached continue implementing the Belt in line with what has been agreed.
Earlier, the Slovene Foreign Minister Dimitrij Rupel said that although there were ways of solving the ZERP issue, Slovenia would not barter with Croatia over whether ZERP was in force or not and would not back down from it’s stance that ZERP should not be implemented against EU countries, as according to Rupel, Croatia had signed such a document in 2004.
