PM, apostolic nuncio talk Croatia-Holy See relations, status of Bosnian Croats

Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic on Thursday met with the Apostolic Nuncio in Croatia, Msgr Alessandro D'Errico, with whom he discussed the further promotion of relations between Croatia and the Holy See and the status of the Croat people in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Plenkovic's public relations office said in a statement.

D'Errico welcomed Croatia's positive role in assisting Bosnia and Herzegovina on the path to EU membership, and Plenkovic informed him of his impressions of his recent official visit to that country, stressing that a European Bosnia and Herzegovina was a foreign policy priority of his government.

D'Errico informed Plenkovic about the process of canonisation of the Blessed Cardinal Alojzije Stepinac and the work of a joint commission of the Croatian Bishops Conference and the Serb Orthodox Church discussing that matter.
