Challeneges of the EU Integration Process for Croatia: Benefits and Costs
One of the main strategic policy goals of the Croatian Government is integration into the European Union. This was clearly demonstrated on 21st February 2003, when Croatia applied for EU membership. By 14th April 2003, Croatia has received an EC Questionnaire which included over 2500 questions regarding the legal system, the constitution, laws and regulations, statistics, foreign affairs, infrastructure, government subsidies to different branches of the economy, and many more. It is on 22nd August 2003 that the deadline for Croatian Ministries to submit the answered questions expired, and it is by early October this year that the completed questionnaire, essential to EU membership, had to arrive to Brussels. Based on the answers, the European Commission will form ist Opinion, in which it will present its evaluation and give recommendations about the ability of Croatia to become a candidate for EU membership. Since it will take the EC seven to eight months to prepare the Opinion, it is expected to be presented to the EU Council in Spring 2004. The Council will then decide whether it will grant Croatia an official candidate status and begin negotiations on accession. During his visit to Croatia, whose purpose was to deliver the EC Questionnaire, the President of the European Commission, Romano Prodi, encouraged the Croatian Government to continue the implementation of the Stabilisation and Association Agreement and Interim Trade Agreement.
