Croatia, and why EU enlargement matters – David Lidington.
“In 1998, when she was made an honorary citizen of Zagreb, Margaret Thatcher, to whom I make no apologies for returning, described Croatia as a country capable of advancing the cause of freedom and democracy in the region. It was, she said, a worthy challenge for a proud people. And it is a challenge to which they have risen”.
Very wise women she was. i only wish our politicians held the same beliefs.

Hello,
I was born in Croatia and live Australia. I have been described as a prominent figure known for my contribution to the Croatian and wider societies, particularly in the context of Croatia’s transition from communism to democracy, as well as for my many years of work as a clinical psychologist and Chief Executive Officer of government-funded services for people with disabilities, including mental health services, in Australia. In 1995, the President of the Republic of Croatia awarded me two Medals of Honor, the Homeland War Memorial Medal and the Order of the Croatian Trefoil for her special merits and her contribution to the founding of the Republic of Croatia. I have been a successful blogger since 2011 and write extensively in the English-language on issues related to Croatian current affairs and democracy, as well as the challenges Croatia faced and still faces in its transition from communism. My goal is to raise awareness of these connections and issues worldwide.
