lpv:translated text	"For Croatia to become an associate member, it has pushed through far-reaching reforms in the last few years in order to meet the European Union’s political, economic and legal requirements, the so-called Copenhagen criteria.The Council has recognised these efforts, thanks to which in December last year Croatia won the status of associate member, and a date was set for the start of accession talks. However, disputes surrounding the handover of General Gotovina have created uncertainty as to whether Croatia can really begin the negotiations. During the talks in Zagreb last week, our committee should have satisfied itself that the Croatian Government is responding to the Council Decision of 17 December and is wholeheartedly cooperating with the International Tribunal. Above all, I ask the members of the Council that they accept as wholehearted cooperation the fact that 625 of the Hague Prosecutor’s 626 demands have been met. It is not fitting for the history of European Union enlargement that the destiny of a thousand-year-old European nation should be tied to a single man."@en1
