Croatian Government Indecisiveness on ZERP Sparks Reaction by Fishermen
March 11th, 2008
Zagreb, March 11 (CP) The fishermen guild from the Zadar county has organised a peaceful protest in the Zadar port due to the government lacking decisiveness in the issue of the Protected Ecology and Fisheries Zone (ZERP).
It was stated that the fishermen were not against EU membership, but said Croatia cannot enter the EU without first protecting its sea that has been feeding Croats for centuries.
The protest comes after the government has decided to let go of ZERP implementation against EU countries in a bid to secure unimpeded EU accession negotiations in hope of completing them until 2009.
