In the episode called "Croatia on Europe's Doorstep," Kosor spoke about Croatia's upcoming membership of the EU and her government's fight against corruption.

Kosor said the fight against corruption was a fight for civil rights.

She said Croatia was nearing the completion of its EU entry talks, voicing hope they would be wrapped up by the end of next year and stressing that the remaining issues, including the "Judiciary and Fundamental Rights" negotiation chapter, would be solved.

The 34-minute "Europe District" show covers the political, economic and cultural aspects of EU accession candidate countries.

At the start of the episode on Croatia, reporters presented famous Croats, Croatia's sights, cultural events and nature.

There was also talk about problems that have to be solved before Croatia joins the EU, with France 24 reporters saying the fight against corruption was the most important issue. They also mentioned some high-profile fraud cases rocking the country.

Kosor said the measures taken to combat corruption would suffice to relieve Croatia of that burden.

A reporter said some surveys showed that euro-scepticism in Croatia was on the rise.

"Fortunately, it isn't so," Kosor said, adding that surveys by European Commission representatives showed that 55 per cent of Croats would support accession to the EU. She voiced confidence that the percentage would go up during the signing of the accession treaty.

Kosor said Croatian citizens would realise that accession to the EU meant a natural return home for Croatia. She added Croatia had always belonged to the European family and that "not only are we returning home, but are really welcome there".
