ZAGREB, May 15, 2018 - Croatian Defence Minister Damir Krstičević held talks in Zagreb on Monday with his Austrian counterpart Mario Kanasek about defence cooperation.
The two ministers agreed that a new agreement regulating defence cooperation would be prepared and signed this autumn.
Krstičević told the press the existing defence cooperation agreement was signed in 1998, adding that the new one would most probably be signed during his official visit to Austria, scheduled for this autumn.
The last time a Croatian defence minister officially visited Austria was in 2004.
The Austrian defence minister is scheduled to visit the central Adriatic city of Zadar on Tuesday to attend a joint military exercise of Croatian and Austrian special diving forces.
