1. (C) PolOffs delivered reftel points to Sanja Bujas-Juraga,
Head of the Department for International Security, MFA on
April 26. Bujas-Juraga agreed that Croatia could best
approach Serbia for interest in endorsing the PSI principles.

discussions on PSI with Serbian counterparts. However, she
said she would look to opportunities in the coming weeks to
try again to generate interest among her Serbian counterparts.

special, interagency National Commission for
Non-proliferation of WMD and Means of their Delivery. The
Commission, which will meet for the first time next week at
the Assistant Minister level, was created to develop and
implement action-oriented goals for the GoC,s PSI efforts,
as well as in broader non-proliferation efforts and
implementation of UNSCR 1540. The Commission will also be
tasked with developing standard operating procedures for
crisis response management.
3. (C) In response to PolOff,s query, Bujas-Juraga reported
that the instrument of ratification for the U.S.-Croatia
