US embassy cable - 04ZAGREB1824

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

1. (U) Poloff delivered refs A & B messages to Drazen 
Hrastic, MFA Head of Cooperative Security Section on Sept. 
21.  Poloff also informed RACVIAC directly of the U.S. 
decision (ref B) to accept observer status on Oct. 11. 
Hrastic welcomed the RACVIAC decision and noted that the 
Dayton Arms Control points reinforced what he had heard from 
other USG interlocutors subsequent to his inquiries of us 
(ref C). 
 
2. (SBU) Comment: Hrastic informed us that he will be the 
first Croatian diplomat assigned to the Croatian contribution 
to the German-led PRT in Afghanistan.  He expects to arrive 
in Afghanistan in early November.  We have found Hrastic to 
be an energetic and able interlocutor on a broad range of 
security, arms control, and non-proliferation issues and 
believe he will make a strong contribution to Croatia's 
Afghanistan contingent.
