Croatian government spokesman Vlatko Macek said the Slovenian decision is groundless legally, as the country -- whose Adriatic coastline is only about 20km long -- does not have free direct access to international waters unless it passes through Italian or Croatian territorial waters.
Portparol hrvatske vlade Vlatko Maček izjavio je da je odluka Slovenije bez pravne osnove, s obzirom da zemlja -- čija je jadranska obala duga samo oko 20 kilometara -- nema slobodan direktan pristup međunarodnim vodama ukoliko ne prolazi kroz italijanske ili hrvatske teritorijalne vode.
