Croatia's eurozone entry, Macron wishes in Croatian

In his message to the people of Croatia, he did not hesitate to say a few words in Croatian.

Dear Croatian friends, welcome to Europe. With you Eurozones will be the most powerful and will protect our citizens in promoting Europe in the world. This step represents a powerful symbol for the European project and still unites us.

Croatia independently decided that even more to join our European adventure. Together we would insist on facilitating travel, investments, as well as on capital movement”, he stressed, among other things.

Croatia has become the 20th EU member state to enter the Eurozone and replace its national currency, the kuna, with the euro.

The Balkan state is already a very much “eurod” economy because more than half of domestic savings and loans are in euros, while more than two-thirds of economic exchanges and the same number of tourists come from the Eurozone.
