Ian, your logic impresses me!
And UK has loads of coastline but Serbia has none,
so, you know what to propose next!
(pyrros, 4 May 2010, 13:46) Give to Serbia your friend some Greek coastline and the city of Thessaloníka.

It's funny how Croatia's relations with Serbia are not bad at all (with minimal outstanding issues), yet Slovenia has constantly been taking advantage, blackmailing, and keeping issues open to the disdain of the EU.

Slovenia has already screwed over Croatia on the Krsko power plant and the Ljubljanska bank.

Both countries owned the power plant, but Slovenia decided to cut power (but not cut the waste produced in Croatia) while Croatia was busy fighting a war.

As for the Ljubljanska banka...that was just disgusting. All non-Slovenians who had bank accounts with Ljubljanska, lost their accounts and their money once Slovenia declared independence.

Now, they are trying to extend their waters into Croatia's?

If I am Croatia, I say that the water borders stay as they are once all those non-Slovenians who's lives were ruined by the Ljubljanska banka are compensated for the money that was stolen from their accounts by Slovenia.

But of course, Slovenia is a EU country and have been using this to blackmail Croatia's accession into the EU.

Ugh. It makes me sick.

Slovenia should just accept the fact that there are some negatives to declaring independence, and this is one of them.

Yes, you "used to" be able to fish in Croatia's waters and use it to access international waters, but that was when they were both a part of the Federation of Yugo.

Now that you're an independent nation, you sever these benefits. There are pros and there are cons to being your own country, and you just have to accept the good with the bad.

I'm no expert on this issue, but Croatia has got a lot of coast line and Slovenia has hardly any. I suppose a referendum is a fair way for the Slovenians to resolve it.
