ZAGREB, 18 June 2021 - The Conflict of Interest Commission did not instigate proceedings against Prime Minister Andrej Plenković on Friday because it did not establish that he had exerted influence on the appointment of an advisor at the Croatian Embassy in Moscow.
It has been established that Plenković, as an office holder, did not participate in the appointment of the advisor, who was appointed by the then foreign minister Marija Pejčinović Burić, the Commission said.
The Commission fined Homeland Movement MP Davor Dretar HRK 2,000 for failing to transfer management rights in two firms after stepping into office.
