Slovenian PM Borut Pahor has warned that time for solving the problems with Croatia is running out, calling for an urgent meeting with Croatian PM Ivo Sanader. Pahor said that he had launched the initiative for a meeting with Sanader a few weeks ago to discuss Ljubljana’s reserves that have brought Croatia’s EU accession talks to a standstill.

On the basis of a resolution adopted by party leaders on December 17, the Slovenian government will draft Ljubljana’s official position on the open issues with Croatia. That document will later be submitted to parliament, said Pahor. Slovenia blocked the opening and closing of 11 negotiating chapters with Zagreb at an accession conference late last year, during the French presidency, claiming that the chapters indirectly “prejudiced borders” with Slovenia.
