Radovan Karadzic, Sarajevo is not your city, and you have no right to say that it is, just as you do not have the right to say in public, even if it’s in court, that someone has dug up bones around Bosnia and brought them to Srebrenica to make a fake graveyard. This is insulting.
Croatia-Egypt Look to Bolster Cooperation
Zagreb | 19 October 2009 |
Jadranka Kosor
The Egyptian leader arrived in Zagreb on Friday and held talks with President Stipe Mesic before meeting Premier Jadranka Kosor on Saturday.
Quoted by Croatia's Hina news agency, Mubarak praised Croatian investments in gas and oil research in his country during his meeting with Mesic, adding: "I expected that this visit will give a new impetus to our cooperation in these areas, but also others."
AFP reports that Kosor proposed that the two countries become involved in new areas of cooperation, including shipbuilding and the food industry.
Egypt constantly struggles to feed its burgeoning population and is having trouble balancing a need to lower food and fuel sudsidies with the resultant social foment rising prices cause.
The Croatian Times reports that Kosor accepted an invitation from Mubarak to visit Egypt in the near future. The Croatian prime minister said that, as a future EU state, her country supports Mediterranean cooperation.
Bilateral trade between Egypt and Croatia rose 55 per cent in 2008 to 55 million euros, 80 per cent of which were Croatian exports, AFP reports.
