Sažetak
There are four groups of new circumstances that Croatia will come across on its path to the European Union. (1) The negotiations of the EU with Croatia will be led on individual basis, in accordance with stricter criteria and with possible complications outside our control. (2) The advantage of Croatia is that it is a relatively small and compact country that is easy to integrate. However, the general fatigue of the EU expansion and psychological (somewhere political) association with the region will hinder its accession. (3) There are already stricter criteria for Croatia, especially of political nature. (4) Croatia will be negotiating with the constitutionally changed EU. The author analyzes the main political goals of our country during the negotiations and while joining the European Union and the areas in which the four EU member countries in the neighborhood (Italy, Austria, Hungary and Slovenia) will have the most pronounced national interests.
