According to media reports, the majority of EU member states, led by Britain, Germany, the Netherlands and Sweden, opposed the opening of negotiations because of Zagreb's failure to arrest and extradite fugitive indictee Ante Gotovina.
Prema izveštajima medija, većina zemalja članica EU, na čelu sa Britanijom, Nemačkom, Holandijom i Švedskom, protivi se otvaranju pregovora jer Zagreb nije uhapsio i izručio odbeglog optuženika Antu Gotovinu.
