Plenkovic: Joining the OECD will enhance our international standing
Zagreb, Jan. 30 (Hibya) – Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic said that joining the OECD will enhance the country’s international standing with the aim of improving citizens’ quality of life and strengthening the competitiveness and resilience of the economy.
Prime Minister Plenkovic said that the Government of the Republic of Croatia hosted a thematic session on the occasion of the presentation of the second OECD Economic Survey for Croatia.
Noting that Croatia is currently in a leading position in terms of the number of completed areas in the accession process to the OECD—an international organization that promotes economic development and world trade—Plenkovic said:
“In recent years, Croatia has undergone a demanding transformation by building strong institutions and a solid reform framework for a stable and sustainable economy, as confirmed by positive macroeconomic indicators. OECD membership, as part of the community of the world’s most advanced economies, is a powerful driver for further reforms, the strengthening of institutions, and new investments.”
Plenkovic added: “Joining the OECD will constitute the final stage of our international positioning and, reflecting a modern understanding of sovereignty, will enhance our international standing with the aim of improving our citizens’ quality of life and strengthening the competitiveness and resilience of the economy.”
