Croatia’s Adriatic coast
ZAGREB, Dec 13 (Hina) – Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic said on Saturday that on Monday his government would adopt a draft decision to declare an exclusive economic zone in the Adriatic.
Plenkovic said on Twitter that he had “consultations with Slovenian Prime Minister Janez Jansa and Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte regarding the declaration of a Croatian exclusive economic zone in the Adriatic” and that “the Croatian government will adopt a report on the process of consultations and a draft decision on the declaration of an exclusive economic zone on Monday.”
The ruling HDZ party caucus said earlier this month that the parliament would declare an exclusive economic zone in the Adriatic by the end of the month.

10. December, 2020
Ljubljana – Foreign Minister Anže Logar is expected to hold talks with his Italian counterpart Luigi Di Maio on Thursday, although virtually and not in-person as was originally scheduled, as Di Maio is self-isolating. Logar will nevertheless travel to Rome, as he is also scheduled to visit the Holy See on Friday.
The Slovenian Foreign Ministry has announced that Di Maio is self-isolating after being in contact with Italian Interior Minister Luciana Lamorgese, who has tested positive for coronavirus, and that he and Logar will meet on-line.
The foreign ministers are expected to talk about the Slovenian minority in Italy, Italy’s plans to declare an exclusive economic zone in the Adriatic Sea, topical EU issues and Slovenia’s presidency of the Council of the EU in the second half of 2021.
