France's Chirac Backs Croatia's EU Membership Bid

By VOA News
15 November 2005

French President Jacques Chirac has offered his support for Croatia's aspirations for European Union membership.

Mr. Chirac told visiting Croatian Prime Minister Ivo Sander that the schedule for membership talks should be respected.

Croatia's EU membership negotiations began in October after an eight-month delay due to the country's failure to capture a top suspect wanted by the United Nations war crimes tribunal.

Mr. Chirac says Croatia's rapid economic development and progress in reforms justified the start of the country's membership negotiations with the bloc.
