SUBJECT: Open Skies Agreement Reached With Croatia
A State-DOT delegation initialed an Open Skies agreement with
Croatia on March 13 after two days of talks in Zagreb. This was the
second round of negotiations on Open Skies, the first being held in
Washington from Sept 27-28, 2007. Conclusion of this agreement caps
two years of steady efforts to secure GOC support and achieves a key
goal of post's Mission Strategic Plan. This agreement lays the
foundation for the further development of our civil aviation
relationship with Croatia. Post will remain actively engaged in
these issues with the GOC to help make sure that the traveling
publics of both of our countries can reap the benefits of this
agreement.
