"We will apologize to parents, we will replace the chocolate with Croatian products," Grabar-Kitarovic said, when asked to comment on Tuesday's "case," Beta is reporting, quoting N1.
According to media reports, the Croatian president was handing out the chocolate along with her photographs, on the anniversary of the conflict with the JNA (Yugoslav People's Army) in Dubrovnik.
But the discovery of Serbian chocolate "made some parents protest."
Grabar-Kitarovic on Wednesday said she "did not personally check the content of the packages distributed to children."
"I am very disappointed because I personally advocate and support the campaign, 'let's buy Croatian'. Products that were not Croatian-made, and that are in the Croatian market, found their way to that package. Croatia's president must incentivize Croatian products, and that will not happen again," she said, adding that "it has been determined a Croatian company from Vukovar packaged those packages."
Croatian chocolate tastes better than Serbian chocolate! It's fact in croatia. Kolinda should distribute Croatian chocolate to the children in trebinje to prove her point.

How come nobody else seems capable of seeing what these nasty little nobodies are? Even in the days of the Serbian Emperor-Kings, they couldn't be bothered with what would become Croatia! So why should the world NOW? As every civilised nation tries to move awy from hatred and toward conciliation, they embrace it; As former enemies join hands to secure peace, Croats lust for war; And as children delightedly await chocolate, a miserable fascist snatches it from their hands.
Serbia's not perfect, this is undeniable: But what nation is? At least Serbia is striving to leave the worst aspects of its past behind, rather than glorifying and venerating them. And as a non-Slav, I feel a thousand times safer in the most bullet-riddled district of Beograd than I do in Zagreb's most affluent suburbs!

She should be ashamed of her self for apologizing for this. That is very discriminatory on her part. Those clearly are not European values. If she doesn't apologize, she should step down. Imagine if an American president did that. If she doesn't like Serbs, she should not hand out their chocolates in the first place.

Turks have one great and glorious history. One History which actually, none of us have. The Turks have a lot to be proud of, and I have nothing against them.
But my ancestors were in Balkan before that Turk and Serbs arrived in Balkan. My ancestors fought with Turks for 500 years and we celebrate our day of independence.

What's racist and anti-Serb in the quote above?! That's like saying that Trump is racist and anti-Serb for not accepting "Make America Great Again" hats that were not American-made.

Not quite, Trump is going to turn America around, Kolinda is driving Croatia's economy down with negative GDP growth.
(Jugoslavija, 9 December 2016 16:26)
Sure, but what's racist and anti-Serb with that?!
As I said, chill down, don't be paranoid, not everything that happens in the world is a conspiracy against you lol

If one is distributing chocolate, I think it would be a sin to only give it to "Serbian" children. That Winston and his ilk are now calling for the distribution chocolate to people of one ethnicity is pure madness. Dude, we are all southern Slavs and our innocent children should not be polluted by your bigoted divisions and sins.

Did you take another economics course at Pristina University and learn what negative GDP growth means? Selling Croatian chocolates to children is not going to solve the Croatian economy.

Can some one explain to me why the Croats hate so much the Serbian people? Studying some of the history from WW2 I would say the Serbs have much greater reason to dislike the Croats for the genocide against the Serbs, Jews and Roma peoples. It appears to me that of all the nations in Europe, Croatians are the most hateful as if its in their very own genes...or taught in childhood to hate.Even moderate Croats if there are any have that hate. I am trying to find historic fact to understand this hate of Croats...the last war as I understand it was a civil war , a war for territory ...both sides did some bad things..but the Croats did the worst of it, ethnic cleansed 300,000 Serbs, murdered innocent civilians and so on...can a Croat please explain to me what is the root of this problem in your country. And now Chocolate-Gate !!! Wow !!!!
(Fredrick, 9 December 2016 16:25)
About how the chocolate found its way there: It is probably someone who saved money on some government contract by buying the cheapest thing (s)he could find and putting the rest of the money in their pockets. We all know how that works :). I have tasted Serbian chocolate only once, it tasted like cacao mixed with ash and sand.

I don't find anything so outragious with her statement. She didn't mention that the product was from Serbia, but that it was not made in Croatia, which she is promoting.

Croatia exports more to Serbia than anywhere else in the region.
(MikeD, 9 December 2016 04:19)
That's fantasy in your head. In 2015, Croatia's exports to Serbia and Montenegro combined, were smaller than Croatia's exports to Bosnia and Herzegovina and much smaller than Croatia's exports to Slovenia.
In order for your comments to start making sense, you might want to base them on facts, rather than the myth that Serbia is the master of the universe!

Why bother with them Croatian losers EU is sinking anyway If Croatians hate the serbian people that much then why bother ? It's waste of time. If the Croatians wish to burn down they own Contry and respect. then let them.
(Justice League, 9 December 2016 10:45)
Who actually knows what the Serbs have put in those chocolates. Surely...being the superior race Croatia can purchase sweets from elsewhere.
(Partizan, 9 December 2016 10:28)
I dont understand why we even deal with these people?? Forget croatia. cut ties completely and move on. Do business with the east that's where the future is. Croatia will soon sink with the EU.

Yes you sad Nazty lady. That's what Serbs call a "Kinder Surprise". Danke Deutschland!!Oops sorry stole your song......

What a careless reaction. Croatia exports more to Serbia than anywhere else in the region. But above all, good thing that they're contributing to stability in the region... they should really rename their country to Adolphsland. Such petty people.
(MikeD, 9 December 2016 04:19)
Wow an international incident over some chocolate.
It's nice to see that all of Serbia's economic problems have been solved and now the politicians can defend the honor of Serbian chocolate.
Another example of the Serbian government trying to make up an international incident to distract the feeble minded in Serbia from their everyday economic misery.
It looks like there are many on this web site that took the bait and are now proud Serbian chocolate connoisseurs defending every little Serb chocolate.

Yes even their weak ass cheap slivovitz I am forced to buy because the Serbian Slivo sold out at 25-30 bucks a bottle.

I can't help zooming in on Kolinda's scary hand. Seriously now, who could have foreseen a Slavic woman could have such an ugly hand. And what if that hand that handed Serbian candies to children decided it was about time for the hand itself to hang around on its own and to abandon the seksi physique it belonged to?
(Drymades, 8 December 2016 16:52)
What I'm more curious about than Kolinda apologizing for Serbian chocolate - that just comes with the territory when dealing with the HDZ - is both how and why Serbian chocolate managed to make it all the way to Ragusa, err sorry, Dubrovnik. Knowing the pride Croats have for Kraš, it's hilarious how no one bothered to check before Ms. Hrvatica handed them out. Quite the embarrassment knowing she seems to be turning every Ivan into a Jovan and every Hrvoje into a Nemanja :)

I am trying to find historic fact to understand this hate of Croats...the last war as I understand it was a civil war , a war for territory ...both sides did some bad things..but the Croats did the worst of it, ethnic cleansed 300,000 Serbs, murdered innocent civilians and so on...can a Croat please explain to me what is the root of this problem in your country. And now Chocolate-Gate !!! Wow !!!!

On that topic, would Nikolic, or any Serb politician, distribute Croatian or Albanian made chocolates to Serbian children? Let him who is without sin cast the first stone.

If one is distributing chocolate, I think it would be a sin to only give it to "Serbian" children. That Winston and his ilk are now calling for the distribution chocolate to people of one ethnicity is pure madness. Dude, we are all southern Slavs and our innocent children should not be polluted by your bigoted divisions and sins.

How pathetic some Croatians are... People like this don't belong in the EU or in Europe as a whole.

"Read the Bible story Cain and Abel which will give you some perspective. Croatia is a Counterfeit country trying to diminish it's South Slav roots. Very similar to Albanians who try to diminish its Turkish roots."
Serbs have gyspy-vlach origins.

FORMER US AMBASSADOR TO CROATIA : The only thing left for the USA to do in Syria is to have a capitulation deal of the opposition with Moscow and Damascus.
Единственное, что осталось США в Сирии, — договориться с Москвой и Дамаском об условиях капитуляции оппозиции, высказал мнение в эфире CNN бывший посол США в Хорватии Питер Гэлбрейт.
What's racist and anti-Serb in the quote above?! That's like saying that Trump is racist and anti-Serb for not accepting "Make America Great Again" hats that were not American-made.
(icj1, 8 December 2016 20:06)
Not quite, Trump is going to turn America around, Kolinda is driving Croatia's economy down with negative GDP growth. Did you take another economics course at Pristina University and learn what negative GDP growth means? Selling Croatian chocolates to children is not going to solve the Croatian economy.

Why bother with them Croatian losers EU is sinking anyway If Croatians hate the serbian people that much then why bother ? It's waste of time. If the Croatians wish to burn down they own Contry and respect. then let them.

Okey we can all play that game .........time to boycott all Croatian food products in the USA. Yes even their weak ass cheap slivovitz I am forced to buy because the Serbian Slivo sold out at 25-30 bucks a bottle. Today begins my boycott and social media buzz on this story of how Serbian made Chocolate is also cleansed in the new Nazi State of Croatia....They truly are pitiful group..
(Fredrick, 8 December 2016 19:42)
I love Serbian chocolate its much, much nicer then the Croatian just like Serbian women.Actually he she comes right now.BYE!
(bobby, 8 December 2016 12:25)
What I'm more curious about than Kolinda apologizing for Serbian chocolate - that just comes with the territory when dealing with the HDZ - is both how and why Serbian chocolate managed to make it all the way to Ragusa, err sorry, Dubrovnik. Knowing the pride Croats have for Kraš, it's hilarious how no one bothered to check before Ms. Hrvatica handed them out. Quite the embarrassment knowing she seems to be turning every Ivan into a Jovan and every Hrvoje into a Nemanja :)

I dont understand why we even deal with these people?? Forget croatia. cut ties completely and move on. Do business with the east that's where the future is. Croatia will soon sink with the EU.

- icj1, the CB of B92, long ago set the benchmark for nonsense. icj1 has labeled an entire ethnic group with a neurological disorder. icj1 is a self-diagnosed nihilist and disciple of Josef Mengele's medical science. icj1 recently confessed to have "lost control". Most recently, in the field of economics, icj1 has idiotically written that a common GDP term was a "nonsensical concept" and "weird thing". icj1 idiocy knows no bounds and is continually showcased in his/her failure to grasp basic concepts in fields of history, science, law, current events and many other topics. Idiocy, intolerance and ignorance define icj1.
Although KRAS is sold all over the world, it has to be the worse chocolate. The biscuits are much better, that being said, very racist comments coming from a right wing Ustasa leader.

I can't help zooming in on Kolinda's scary hand. Seriously now, who could have foreseen a Slavic woman could have such an ugly hand. And what if that hand that handed Serbian candies to children decided it was about time for the hand itself to hang around on its own and to abandon the seksi physique it belonged to?
(Drymades, 8 December 2016 16:52)
I always know deep down,that Croatnut's eating secretly Serb Choc's and know it is more sweeter .
(sasa.p from near Jagodina, Serbia, 8 December 2016 18:37)
What a careless reaction. Croatia exports more to Serbia than anywhere else in the region. But above all, good thing that they're contributing to stability in the region... they should really rename their country to Adolphsland. Such petty people.
(MikeD, 9 December 2016 04:19)
Yes you sad Nazty lady. That's what Serbs call a "Kinder Surprise". Danke Deutschland!!Oops sorry stole your song......
(Buttons, 9 December 2016 04:27)
Croatian chocolate tastes better than Serbian chocolate! It's fact in croatia. Kolinda should distribute Croatian chocolate to the children in trebinje to prove her point.
(FitzoyMcC, 1 January 2017 01:35)
She should be ashamed of her self for apologizing for this. That is very discriminatory on her part. Those clearly are not European values. If she doesn't apologize, she should step down. Imagine if an American president did that. If she doesn't like Serbs, she should not hand out their chocolates in the first place.
(Raisin Scone, 12 December 2016 11:42)
How come nobody else seems capable of seeing what these nasty little nobodies are? Even in the days of the Serbian Emperor-Kings, they couldn't be bothered with what would become Croatia! So why should the world NOW? As every civilised nation tries to move awy from hatred and toward conciliation, they embrace it; As former enemies join hands to secure peace, Croats lust for war; And as children delightedly await chocolate, a miserable fascist snatches it from their hands.
Serbia's not perfect, this is undeniable: But what nation is? At least Serbia is striving to leave the worst aspects of its past behind, rather than glorifying and venerating them. And as a non-Slav, I feel a thousand times safer in the most bullet-riddled district of Beograd than I do in Zagreb's most affluent suburbs!
