The two country's foreign ministers, Kinga Goncz and Gordan Jadrokovic met in Budapest. "Croatia will wait until most of the EU member states recognize Kosovo independence," Jadrokovic said, and added that Zagreb was "closely following the events in Kosovo". "It will not be easy for Hungary to recognize Kosovo because of the fact that Serbia is its neighbor and that a numerous Hungarian minority lives in Serbia," Goncz assessed. "It is important for us to maintain good relations with Serbia," she said and underlined that because of all that, Hungary would not be among the first countries to acknowledge Kosovo, adding, however, that her country would do that "in the next couple of weeks", the Hungarian news agency MTI reported. In Slovenia Friday, the parliament said it will not debate Ljubljana's recognition of Kosovo since the proposal the government sent was "not according to the procedure". For this reason, officials said, the proposal will not be on the agenda of the next session, scheduled for the end of the month.
