Plenkovic reiterated the fact that his government supports the decision of Croatian Prime Minister George Jandrokovic to cancel his visit to Serbia.

I expect Serbia strongly and unequivocally condemns this act of their MP in the Assembly, which once again repeat its harsh and ruthless rhetoric to Croatia”, Plenkovic said.

The Croatian government, he said, will continue to build relations with neighbours, and will respond to such actions “of determination and appropriately in protecting the dignity of the Croatian state and the dignity of Croatia as a whole.” /Periscopi/
