President Reuven Rivlin this afternoon met at his residence with Prime Minister of Croatia Andrej Plenković, accompanied by the country’s minister of defense and deputy prime minister, Damir Krstičević, and the deputy president of the Croatian Parliament, Milijan Brkić.
“I want to thank you for Croatia’s support for Israel in the international arena” Rivlin says, according to his office.
Plenković thanked Rivlin.
“This is great timing, and a great opportunity to enhance our relationship with this visit. I think we have opened new avenues of cooperation when it comes to political, economic and trade relations, and defense and security cooperation,” he says.
