Kolinda Grabar-Kitarović

ZAGREB - Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said in Zagreb Monday certain information on missing persons had been offered at his meeting with Croatian counterpart Kolinda Grabar-Kitarovic and announced the two countries would try to resolve the border issue in the next two years.

If no solution is found, international arbitration will have to take place, he told a press conference.

ZAGREB - Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic, who is visiting Zagreb at the invitation of his counterpart Kolinda Grabar-Kitarovic, was on Monday welcomed outside the Croatian presidential palace at Pantovcak with full state honours.

At a press conference held after Vucic spoke with the Serbs in Vrginmost, Croatian journalists insisted on asking "whether he would apologize for the speech he made at a gathering in Glina in 1995."

Namely, Vucic at the time "promised to that the Serb Krajina and Glina will never be Croatia, and that the Ustasha rule will never be able to arrive there."

The daily Dnevnik published the article under the headline, "Miracle - Serbian flags in middle of Zagreb," adding that the Serbian president's swift response to the unexpected invitation from this Croatian counterpart "gives hope that the two countries could find wisdom and courage to start solving problems."

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic kicked off an official two-day visit to Croatia — the first official meeting between the Serbian and Croatian heads of state in five years — by holding talks with his Croatian counterpart, Kolinda Grabar-Kitarovic, on February 12.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic handed over files on Serbs who went missing in wartime to his Croatian counterpart Kolinda Grabar-Kitarovic, as both pledged to resolve disputes that have heightened tensions.

She made the remark after their meeting in Zagreb on Monday.

Speaking to the media, Grabar-Kitarovic said she was satisfied with the meeting, that according to her, had been under preparation "for months."

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic has announced that a planned two-day visit to Croatia will go ahead on Monday and Tuesday - despite contined acrimony between the two countries, and after Serbia's Defence Minister claimed he could even be killed there.

BELGRADE - Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic announced on Wednesday he had accepted Croatian President Kolinda Grabar-Kitarovic's invitation to visit Zagreb and that the visit would take place on February 12-13.

"I think it is important for our country that we have received Kolinda Grabar-Kitarovic's invitation..."
