Foreign Ministry Denies Croatia's Claims on Bilateral Dialogue

Ljubljana, 1 December - In a reply to Croatia's note from 18 November, the Slovenian Foreign Ministry has denied allegations that Slovenia rejects a bilateral political dialogue. Slovenia has in fact pointed out already in its note on 7 November that given the complexity of Croatia's declaration of a fisheries zone in the Adriatic, it favours multilateral talks including all involved countries bordering the Adriatic, the ministry said on Monday.
