Andrej Plenković international diplomatic engagements

Overview

Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenković has engaged in various international forums to address regional and global security concerns. At the 52nd Chernobyl Forum in Italy, Plenković focused on Mediterranean and European Union issues, specifically migration, energy security, and EU enlargement. He reported that illegal migration into Croatia has reached “almost insignificant levels” due to enhanced border security and noted that Croatia is serving as a transit hub for gas and oil to Central Europe.

In subsequent remarks at the P4M summit in New York, Plenković shifted focus to the stability of the global order. He argued that the international order is at a “serious moment” as the UN Charter and international law face challenges, specifically citing Russian aggression against Ukraine. He advocated for “modern sovereignty,” defined as a sovereign state rooted in democratic values and international law that maintains strong connections with global partners.

During the 81st UN General Assembly in New York, Plenković expanded on these themes, stating that for small and medium-sized nations, international law serves as the “boundary between order and tyranny.” He reiterated his criticism of Russian aggression in Ukraine and expressed support for a two-state solution in the Middle East, emphasizing the necessity of protecting civilians and ensuring humanitarian access in Gaza.

Addressing regional Balkan stability, Plenković criticized Serbia for honoring convicted war criminal Ratko Mladić, describing the act as an “insult to all victims” and a violation of international court rulings that contradicts requirements for Serbia’s potential EU accession. He also called for electoral reforms in Bosnia and Herzegovina to ensure legitimate political representation for Croats and advocated for comprehensive reforms of the United Nations, including the Security Council, to improve effectiveness and modern representation.
