Hrvatski premijer Ivo Sanader prošle je sedmice izjavio da je, nakon svojih razgovora u Briselu ove sedmice i sastanka s britanskim premijerom Gordonom Brownom, on optimista povodom toga da će EU pronaći načina za prijem Hrvatske, bez obzira na to što je Irska odbacila Lisabonski sporazum.
Croatian Prime Minister Ivo Sanader said last week that, after his talks in Brussels this week and meeting with British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, he was optimistic that the EU would find a way to admit Croatia, regardless of Ireland's rejection of the Lisbon Treaty.
