Slovenian Foreign Minister Samuel Zbogar told Slovenian reporters in Brussels on Friday he was optimistic about the settlement of outstanding issues with Croatia.
He was attending an informal meeting of European Union foreign ministers which the ministers of candidate countries, including Croatia's Gordan Jandrokovic, will attend tomorrow.
Zbogar said a meeting with Jandrokovic was not scheduled, but added that Slovenian-Croatian relations were developing well.
"In our relations with Croatia everything is under control and things are being dealt with," he told Slovenian news agency STA.
Zbogar announced that the chairs of the Slovenian-Croatian commission for the settlement of outstanding issues would meet next week, and that notes on the ratification of the border arbitration agreement could be exchanged soon.
