Croatia and Turkey: Toward a Durable Peace in Southeastern Europe
PERCEPTIONS JOURNAL OF INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS September - November 1998 Volume III - Number 3 CROATIA AND TURKEY: TOWARD A DURABLE PEACE IN SOUTHEASTERN EUROPE MIOMIR ZUZUL His Eminence Dr. Miomir Zuzul is the Ambassador of the Republic of Croatia to the United States. INTRODUCTION Mr. Chairman, fellow panelists, ladies and gentlemen: I am pleased to be here with you today to discuss the crucial role that Turkey has to play in strengthening the foundations of regional stability and security. Before I begin, let me just outline the main elements of what I believe to be crucial in understanding the role of Turkey in the region. Firstly, I want to discuss the ways in which Croatia and Turkey have worked together to further bilateral relations in the fields of economics, politics and security. Secondly, I want to address the constructive role that Turkey has played in stabilising turbulent Southeastern Europe, in particular its role in maintaining stability and security in Bosnia-Herzegovina. Indeed, Turkey has played a vital role in forging a lasting and durable peace in Bosnia-Herzegovina. Croatia and Turkey have worked closely with Bosnia-Herzegovina to bring peace to that war-torn country, in particular by strengthening the Federation between Bosnian Croats and Bosniaks (Muslims). Finally, I will address the issue of the future of NATO in Bosnia-Herzegovina in particular, and in the region in general. Here I want to outline a rather novel approach to responding to the challenges that the spectre of a long-term international presence poses to Bosnia-Herzegovina’s longevity. Simply stated, it is conceivable that NATO’s presence in Bosnia-Herzegovina—and by extension in Croatia, because Croatia wants to join the major European economic, political and security institutions—can be transformed from an open-ended peacekeeping mission into a regular NATO deployment.

EU Population in 2020: Almost 448 Million More Deaths Than Births
111/2020 - 10 July 2020 First population estimates EU population in 2020: almost 448 million More deaths than births On 1 January 2020, the population of the European Union (EU) with 27 Member States was estimated at 447.7 million, down by 12.8% as compared with 513.5 million in 28 Member States on 1 January 2019. This decrease is mainly due to the withdrawal of the United Kingdom (on 1 February 2020), which led the population of the EU to decrease by 13%. The total EU27 population change was positive with 0.9 million more inhabitants during 2019, due to net migration. The natural change of the EU population has been negative since 2012, with more deaths than births recorded in the EU (4.7 million deaths and 4.2 million births in 2019). These figures are issued by Eurostat, the statistical office of the European Union, just before the World Population Day (11 July). Largest population size in Germany, smallest in Malta Among the EU Member States, Germany has the largest population (83.2 million residents) accounting for 18.6% of the total EU population at 1 January 2020, followed by France (67.1 million or 15.0%), Italy (60.2 million or 13.5%), Spain (47.3 million or 10.6%) and Poland (38.0 million or 8.5%). Fourteen Member States have a share of between 1% and 5% of the EU population, while eight have a share below 1%.

I. Introduction. Relevance of the Peer Review in the Context of the 1540 II
JOINT REPORT OF CROATIA AND POLAND ON THE BILATERAL PEER REVIEW OF IMPLEMENTATION OF THE UN SECURITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION 1540 (2004) I. Introduction. Relevance of the peer review in the context of the 1540 II. Peer review – Croatia III. Peer review – Poland IV. Conclusions and recommendations V. Possible way forward I. Introduction. Relevance of the peer review in the context of the 1540 Croatia and Poland share a longstanding, successful bilateral cooperation in the sphere of disarmament and non-proliferation. In the UN context both our countries perceive the Security Council Resolution 1540 as one of the most important elements of global non-proliferation architecture. In this context, both Croatia and Poland have undertaken different initiatives aimed at promoting aims and objectives of this Resolution and expressed their readiness to continue such practices. Taking into account the high level of implementation of non-proliferation norms, as well as development of respective national measures to counter proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and related materials, our countries introduced a concept of 1540-related peer review: a framework to compare experiences and examine, jointly and on an interactive basis, 1540 implementation policies, approaches and practices. This peer review process is based on the principles of trust, openness and cooperation, which in fact means that there are no ideal yardsticks that would in any way assess the implementation of measures. The basic idea behind this concept is to move beyond current implementation activities and simple awareness rising toward country specific dialogue and stronger mutual cooperation in implementation of this important Resolution. We have agreed to conduct two rounds of the peer review The peer review is supposed to serve as a tool to improve understanding of the importance of Resolution 1540 among the UN member states.
