Sažetak
As a result of its membership in the European Union, the Republic of Croatia has undertaken the obligation to respect the “rules of the game” as defined both by the Founding Treaties (TEU and TFEU) and the case law of the Court of Justice of the EU. The first part of the paper explores legal problems faced by the Republic of Croatia in the implementation and application of EU law following its membership in the EU. The aim of this part of the paper is to analyze the areas in which the European Commission found alleged violations of EU law. In this context recommendations of the European Commission to the Republic of Croatia will be analyzed as well as proceedings initiated before the Court of Justice of the EU. The second part of the paper analyzes the application of requests for preliminary ruling based on Article 267 of TFEU submitted to the Court of Justice of the EU by Croatian courts over the past five years. We will focus on specific problems and offer solutions in order to improve the cooperation of Croatian courts with the Court of Justice of the EU with the aim of providing uniform interpretation and application of EU law.
