PRESIDENT Zoran Milanović made a statement on Facebook regarding the sale of Rafale fighter jets to Serbia, reacting to statements by the French Minister Delegate for Europe Benjamin Haddad, who was in Zagreb yesterday as a guest of Prime Minister Andrej Plenković.
Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenković yesterday rejected President Zoran Milanović's criticism that France had "supplied used Rafales to Croatia" while selling new ones to Serbia. The president has now addressed the issue in a new statement, which we are publishing in full, Jutarnji list reports.
Milanović Called Out the Government for Failing to Protect National Interests in the Rafale Purchase
Milanović believes that the government clearly "acted amateurishly and irresponsibly" if it "did not know or ask about future French plans regarding Rafale."
France is luring Serbia to the West to the detriment of Croatian national interests, President Zoran Milanović announced today. The accusations come after French Minister for European Affairs Benjamin Haddad visited Zagreb on Monday, when, according to Milanović, he explained why Croatia bought used Rafale jets from France, while Serbia bought new ones.
Milanović has said several times in recent months that France has "supplied second-hand guns" to Croatia.
'I urge him to finally stop listening to dictates and start taking care primarily of Croatian interests'
