Republic of Croatia National Security Strategy

In its brief history as an independent state, the Republic of Croatia is again at a crossroads! The European area, in particular the area of Central Europe, to which Croatia belongs geographically, historically and culturally, is faced with security threats from the east and the south. The Republic of Croatia is located in the very centre of these developments and at an intersection of these lines of force of instability, which shook the foundations of Europe’s security architecture, thus creating a need for a completely new European and Euro-Atlantic strategic deliberation and setting, and reminding us of the lasting duty and task of tireless care for the state’s national security.
