Croatia has dismissed claims made by Aleksandar Vučić regarding the security agreement with Albania and Kosovo, accusing him of deliberate misinterpretation.
The Croatian Ministry of Defence emphasized that the agreement does not have a military character, but rather focuses on technical cooperation, knowledge exchange, and coordination in the defense industry to strengthen regional stability. According to officials in Zagreb, the document is part of broader efforts to support the Euro-Atlantic integration of Albania and Kosovo.
Defense Minister Ivan Anušić stated that the concerns raised by Belgrade are unfounded, also recalling a 2010 agreement between Serbia and Croatia, which he said is broader than this trilateral initiative.
Meanwhile, NATO has called on all parties to act responsibly, while Croatia подчеркed that, as a member of the European Union and NATO, it will continue to pursue an independent and transparent policy in the region.
