During her official visit to the United States, Croatian Prime Minister Jadranka Kosor on Tuesday met former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright to discuss NATO's new strategic concept, Croatia's participation in the NATO-led mission in Afghanistan and the completion of Croatia's EU entry talks.
Albright currently chairs a group of experts in charge of changing NATO's strategic concept.
Kosor said her and Albright talked about cooperation within NATO, notably within the ISAF mission in Afghanistan.
The talks also focused on the completion of Croatia's EU entry talks and one of the obstacles on Croatia's path to the EU - the assessment of Croatia's cooperation with the UN war crimes tribunal at The Hague in connection with Chapter 23 on the judiciary.
"Mrs. Albright said she would do everything in her power to clarify what is happening," Kosor said, adding that Croatia has the support of the United States on its path to the EU.
Albright and Kosor talked about economic reforms in Croatia and measures aimed at encouraging foreign investments, the situation in Bosnia-Herzegovina and Croatia's support for the Euro-Atlantic integration of Bosnia and other countries in the region.
They also talked about the role of women in politics and other issues.
Kosor said she invited Kosor to attend the Croatia Summit, which is to take place in Dubrovnik in July.
