Croatian government approves arbitrage agreement with Slovenia

01/11/2009

ZAGREB, Croatia -- The cabinet approved an arbitration agreement with Slovenia on Friday (October 30th) that should result in solution to the year-long border dispute between the two states. The agreement was forwarded to parliament for approval, accompanied by a unilateral statement saying the agreement does not pre-judge the outcome of international arbitration. Prime Minister Jadranka Kosor expects parliamentary approval early this week, followed by a signing ceremony with Slovenia mid-week. (HRT, Vjesnik, Javno, AP, DPA - 30/10/09)
