"We are aware that some time has to pass from the moment of applying for membership to the moment of acquiring that status, and we are aware we must fulfil certain conditions, but we will succeed," former Prime Minister Zeljko Sturanovic, who stepped down due to health reasons, said at the start of the new year.
"Svesni smo da neko vreme mora da prođe od trenutka podnošenja molbe za članstvo do dobijanja tog statusa i svesni smo da moramo da ispunimo neke uslove, ali ćemo uspeti", rekao je početkom nove godine bivši premijer Željko Šturanović, koji je podneo ostavku iz zdravstvenih razloga.
