US Ambassador James Foley refused on Friday to confirm media speculation that the US had denied a visa request by former Croatian Prime Minister Ivo Sanader, saying only that the US had been closely cooperating with the Croatian police since Thursday.

I can't comment on specific cases, Foley said in response to questions from the press if it was true that the US had refused to give Sanader a visa.

I can only say that the US has been closely cooperating with the Croatian police since yesterday, Foley said, stressing that it was important to support justice in Croatia.

I think Croatia has managed to achieve results on its own, but it is normal that it should cooperate with police forces in many countries in order to bring the former prime minister to justice, said Foley.
