Croatian Prime Minister Jadranka Kosor has said that the system in the country is neither undermined nor unstable, adding that all three branches of the government function well.
In response to questions from the press about President Ivo Josipovic's statement that the system in the country was unstable, Kosor said on Thursday "facts show that the system is functioning".
The sale of state bonds in the United States and the implementation of the announced investment projects prove that, the premier said answering questions from the press after she presented new projects for the second quarter of this year.
The job which Finance Minister Martina Dalic did in the United States (selling the state bonds) show that Croatia is perceived as a stable country, Kosor added.
The government has a stable support, the parliament is functioning normally, the president is functioning normally, the Constitutional and the Supreme Courts and other courts are functioning normally. So, we can say that all the three branches of power are functioning. Consequently, the system is not jeopardised," she said.
Asked about some assessments that Croatia would not manage to bring the EU accession negotiations to the conclusion in June, Kosor said that her cabinet held that the achieving that goal was realistic.
We are doing everything to see to it that the talks are wrapped up in June, Kosor said expressing satisfaction with the fact that during his visit to Zagreb last Monday the European Parliament Rapporteur for Croatia, Hannes Swoboda, said that he expected Croatia first to wrap up the EU entry talks and then to reach agreement on parliamentary elections.
