[00:00:00] that we will have at our disposal from 2028
[00:00:03] onwards, then we will talk about where we will direct
[00:00:07] those funds. Just now we talked very briefly about the recovery and
[00:00:11] resilience plan, which is one instrument for which
[00:00:14] Croatia, as I emphasized several times just now, not according to my
[00:00:17] words, but according to the Commission's estimates, Croatia is using it very well
[00:00:21] on that wave of good use of funds that we are directing to
[00:00:25] healthcare, to education, to
[00:00:28] justice, to education. "Ultimately, the reconstruction of the city
[00:00:32] of Zagreb, i.e., energy efficiency, transport, for
[00:00:35] example, the new trams that run through the city of Zagreb, all of this is financed from the recovery
[00:00:38] and resilience plan, so the recovery and resilience plan, new
[00:00:42] buses that will run through the city of Zagreb, through Virovitica and other
[00:00:45] cities, all of this is financed from the recovery and resilience plan, i.e.,
[00:00:49] European funds, and bearing in mind that
[00:00:52] the Croatian administration, government ministries have experience in implementing the recovery
[00:00:56] and resilience plan, I believe and hope that Croatia, i.e., all of us in the end,
[00:01:00] will continue to make good use of European funds so that we can
[00:01:03] continue to have a positive impact on the economic growth of our
[00:01:07] country. Just to conclude, perhaps a hypothetical
[00:01:10] question, or let's try to make projections into the future,
[00:01:14] if there were a significant reduction in money from European
[00:01:17] funds due to these negotiations or at least a smaller amount, of course that never
[00:01:21] happens overnight, of course the periods last for another year, two
[00:01:25] or three after what is nominally stated as the end of the period.
[00:01:29] Even if inflation were to slow down, which I believe
[00:01:32] many wish for, inflation is bad for many things, but it does not necessarily
[00:01:36] have to be bad for the state budget, which many economists will say that
[00:01:40] budgets often profit from high inflation
[00:01:43] rates, can this become a problem for Croatia's
[00:01:46] credit rating? We know that agencies look at a country's ability
[00:01:50] to repay debt, the share of public debt in
[00:01:54] now it seems to me that this awareness is changing GDP, if we know to what extent European money, European
[00:01:57] funds represent an important source of financing. I say,
[00:02:01] a budget that grows due to inflation, can this in some
[00:02:05] medium, I won't say near, but let's say medium future be a challenge
[00:02:08] for Croatia's fiscal framework, for Croatian finances, these
[00:02:12] facts alone probably not, now I will say why, for example, Moody's, as we started
[00:02:16] our conversation, when you look at their analysis
[00:02:19] of Croatia, it primarily highlights the efficiency
[00:02:22] of implementation, it is less important how much funds there are, the second important thing
[00:02:26] is the efficiency of implementation, it is true that Croatia from the recovery and resilience plan.
[00:02:30] "When we look at the amount of 10 billion euros, that is 13% of our GDP in
[00:02:34] the entire European Union, only Greece has more funds per
[00:02:38] GDP than us, despite that, so it is demanding to implement, any
[00:02:41] other country would struggle quite a bit with it, then
[00:02:45] the efficiency of implementation is looked at, and we are very good at that, furthermore
[00:02:49] when you look at, for example, the inflation that you, that you mentioned,
[00:02:53] Moody's, the agency that confirmed our rating the other day,
[00:02:57] does not mention inflation at all, so it doesn't mention it
[00:03:00] as a future problem, it only mentions it in one place as a fact how high
[00:03:04] it is, that doesn't mean we won't face inflation, but when
[00:03:07] you look at the forecasts for 2027,
[00:03:11] almost all European Union countries are between 2 and 3%,
[00:03:15] approximately, I say that inflation will not be, will not be a problem, so
[00:03:18] efficiency will be looked at and third, economic, economic
[00:03:22] growth is also looked at, that is again related to the rating and the use of
[00:03:26] funds, so our economic growth for
[00:03:29] now... is twice as high as the European Union average, we are
[00:03:33] one of four European Union countries that has recorded
[00:03:36] constant economic growth for the last
[00:03:39] 21 quarters, this is reflected, among
[00:03:42] other things, through the use of EU funds. In a
[00:03:46] hypothetical situation, if the amount of funds were significantly
[00:03:49] reduced, which it won't be, of course we will choose
[00:03:52] those, or rather we will more strongly choose those
[00:03:55] investments that are aimed at contributing to
[00:03:58] economic growth. growth in productivity, growth in Croatia's
[00:04:02] competitiveness, for now we have the situation
[00:04:05] that when European funds come to us, we can finance a lot, a lot
[00:04:09] of policies. The National Recovery and Resilience Plan is an example of this,
[00:04:13] we have financed practically everything you can imagine, precisely
[00:04:16] because of the size of the amount, very successfully, of course to the satisfaction of all of us
[00:04:20] who live in Croatia, I say this because some other
[00:04:24] countries are not in that, are not in that situation, some
[00:04:27] countries direct it only, for example, to... energy only
[00:04:31] to some specific sectors and we can, just now we talked about
[00:04:34] healthcare, education, energy, look at the news
[00:04:38] of the last few days, or rather years, when we are in
[00:04:41] energy, the gasification of Croatia, for example, so
[00:04:45] uh, a part of the LNG terminal was financed from the recovery
[00:04:48] and resilience plan, over 200 km of new gas pipelines were
[00:04:52] built in Croatia again from the recovery and resilience plan, so this
[00:04:55] contributes to energy stability, it
[00:04:59] contributes to. in fact, the control of energy prices, among other things, that
[00:05:03] can also long-term affect the preservation of our
[00:05:06] rating, but at some point the energy
[00:05:09] stability and security of the state will also be looked at, which is not negligible. at this
[00:05:13] moment, we will, of course, continue to follow this, especially these negotiations that are coming up in
[00:05:16] Brussels, and the assumption is that they should be finished by the end
[00:05:20] of the year, if everything is, of course, under control, then we will know more,
[00:05:24] Mr. Savić, thank you very much for being our guest, thank you for
[00:05:26] the invitation,
[00:05:36] we will take a short break, stay with us, in the continuation we also bring
[00:05:39] this: a scandal in Germany, everyone
[00:05:43] will tell how August Henning fell, a man who spent seven years at the head
[00:05:46] of Germany's most important intelligence service, the BND, where he had access to
[00:05:50] the most strictly guarded state secrets. Live from Germany for
[00:05:53] Novi dan, Srećko Martić speaks.
[00:05:57] Public consultation on anchor prices begins, which activities will be
[00:06:01] excluded from the obligation to publish them. Minister
[00:06:04] of Economy Šušnjar said nothing is set in
[00:06:07] stone. We are following the development of events.
[00:06:11] unexpectedly announced that a ceasefire on
[00:06:15] energy infrastructure between Ukraine and Russia has been agreed, but
[00:06:18] there are no official confirmations from Kyiv and Moscow. Ukrainian President
[00:06:21] Zelensky caught live, we are in
[00:11:22] Good morning once again to the N1
[00:11:25] Television studio and welcome once again back to the program, it's
[00:11:29] time for a press review, i.e., a review of the front pages
[00:11:33] of daily newspapers, which on Mondays we usually go through
[00:11:36] with our Tihana Tomičić from Novi list, the editor-in-chief
[00:11:40] of Novi list, Tihana, good morning, greetings, of course,
[00:11:44] to Rijeka from Zagreb,
[00:11:47] good morning, let's start with the front pages and then we'll see
[00:11:51] what Novi list has prepared for us today, we'll start with Večernji list.
[00:11:55] list which says that Croats are spending record amounts
[00:11:58] on foreign travel in foreign destinations,
[00:12:01] they left a billion euros. The Croatian alleged bank
[00:12:05] states that the outflow of capital for travel to other countries
[00:12:08] in the first six months of this year increased by
[00:12:12] 27%, meaning that even
[00:12:15] 233 million euros more was spent.
[00:12:19] Croats massively fled to northern Europe this summer.
[00:12:23] Josip Mikulić, professor at the Zagreb Faculty of Economics, says:
[00:12:26] "Not all movements this year should be attributed solely to
[00:12:30] fleeing domestic prices," but obviously
[00:12:34] some can be attributed to that. The great transformation of the Czech Republic, the country
[00:12:37] of cars has become a military power. In three years, arms exports
[00:12:41] increased sixfold, the defense sector became one of the
[00:12:45] key pillars of the economy. Olive harvesting
[00:12:49] began, the fruits are small and dry,
[00:12:52] olive growers announce higher oil prices. Incentives for
[00:12:56] electric cars are coming, 20 million euros are available
[00:13:00] to citizens. Jutarnji list, negotiations on
[00:13:04] earnings for 2027. The battle for
[00:13:08] the minimum wage begins. Hup offers
[00:13:10] 187, trade unions demand
[00:13:13] 1,250 euros. The government can give
[00:13:16] workers another 60 euros per month.
[00:13:20] Supervision of the Istrian water supply launched, seven contracts in
[00:13:23] one day by a company. of a former employee, the water supply awarded as many
[00:13:27] as 101 jobs without
[00:13:30] a public tender, delivery is late, the
[00:13:33] flu has arrived, but so has the vaccine, flu vaccination begins
[00:13:37] at the beginning of November, the virus is raging in seven
[00:13:40] counties, most flu among
[00:13:43] preschoolers. Slobodna
[00:13:46] Dalmacija, how the money collected for
[00:13:50] the reconstruction of houses in Omiš is spent, we asked Bruno
[00:13:53] Lerotić. "Did you consult with the city,
[00:13:57] they have no idea what they are doing, do the houses you are renovating have valid
[00:14:00] documentation, we have all the necessary solutions,
[00:14:03] what kind, just a moment, here I have one solution for quick renovation, from
[00:14:07] whom, signed by an independent administrative
[00:14:10] clerk, who, it's not visible, what do you mean,
[00:14:14] who is it, an interesting conversation,
[00:14:17] 24 hours, who is who in the mega waste scandal,
[00:14:21] a secret network of fraud, money will solve everything,
[00:14:24] Dodić and Šincek led the story around Benkovac, in
[00:14:28] Senj, the head of the utility company arranged for plastic to be dumped on
[00:14:31] Velebit. The life and death of Stolar's son,
[00:14:35] because of drugs I worked at a gas station for
[00:14:39] a handful of money, a question, or rather a story, of course, about Goran
[00:14:42] Bare. Glas Slavonije, demographic trends in
[00:14:45] Croatia, the population has increased, mainly due to
[00:14:49] migration, waste management, Croatia needs
[00:14:52] four power plants, one of them will be in Osijek, elections
[00:14:56] in BiH, Pepić, Filipović's victory has
[00:14:59] strategic importance for Croats, and the first
[00:15:03] defeat at home, Osijek took an early lead against Istra, but remained
[00:15:06] without a solution. And Novi
[00:15:09] list. Accident on Mei, removal
[00:15:13] of wagons began, experts warn of the problem.
[00:15:16] Composite brakes are not suitable for
[00:15:19] this track. They are a double-edged sword, introduced to reduce
[00:15:23] noise, but not suitable for... prolonged braking. On steep
[00:15:27] inclines, so-called sawtooth
[00:15:29] braking must be used, points out Milan
[00:15:32] Brkić, a retired expert in
[00:15:35] railway compositions.
[00:15:37] And here, of course, is the question of the power plant, or rather waste
[00:15:41] management, the designer of Danish Copenhill, for Novi
[00:15:44] list, the power plant can be a part of the city's
[00:15:48] public life. The US turnaround, Trump and Putin together against
[00:15:52] Zelensky, Ljubo Jurčić, the problem is not the rebalance, but
[00:15:55] the economic model. So let's go
[00:15:58] back to Rijeka, where our Tihana Tomičić is waiting for us, Tihana,
[00:16:02] well, due to that tragic event, fortunately
[00:16:05] without human casualties.
[00:16:08] The event related to the railway in Rijeka, apparently some old
[00:16:12] questions have reopened,
[00:16:15] yes, well, this was already the fourth or fifth railway
[00:16:19] accident recently in Rijeka or near Rijeka, and that is, of course, a crucial
[00:16:23] important question for us because the railway is linked to port traffic,
[00:16:27] so the very fact that this
[00:16:30] accident occurred means that uh, all cargo must
[00:16:34] be transported by trucks until the track is repaired, at least to
[00:16:38] a part of the track, so bypassing it, and
[00:16:41] probably a good part to Zagreb and so on,
[00:16:45] so this is a huge topic for us in Novi list, I say, also
[00:16:49] because of the port, we talked with experts after this happened,
[00:16:53] we tried to see if the reason was the condition of the track, if
[00:16:57] the state was responsible for that, if the company
[00:17:00] Croatian Railways was responsible, or if the carriers were
[00:17:04] responsible, i.e., those who own mm...
[00:17:07] certain wagons and who
[00:17:11] own the trains that transport that
[00:17:14] cargo, the point of this story is
[00:17:18] that, to briefly explain what the expert explained to us,
[00:17:22] is that it is a track that has an
[00:17:25] extremely steep incline towards Rijeka
[00:17:28] when descending from Gorski Kotar and that
[00:17:31] incline dictates prolonged
[00:17:33] braking, and these wagons are obviously not
[00:17:37] well adapted to that, these are actually modern, new
[00:17:40] wagons that have these composite brakes that are more modern
[00:17:44] than the asbestos ones that used to exist on old trains,
[00:17:48] however, for some reason, they obviously fail on these inclines with that prolonged
[00:17:52] braking, the expert explained, that trains brake for
[00:17:56] about 50 minutes, right, while they pass that
[00:18:00] incline to Rijeka, so that is obviously a great
[00:18:03] strain for that type of brakes, now how to overcome
[00:18:06] that is what we will deal with further, because
[00:18:09] it is obvious that the wagons are new, that the problem was not
[00:18:13] that they were faulty, but simply that, well,
[00:18:17] these brakes give way under that pressure, so that's one topic
[00:18:20] that we will continue to deal with, it is actually uh,
[00:18:24] I say, crucially important for the port of Rijeka, so Novi list will certainly
[00:18:28] continue to uh look for ways to
[00:18:31] get answers to how these things can be
[00:18:35] prevented in the future. This
[00:18:39] is another local topic which is, of course, important and
[00:18:43] which is discussed not only in Rijeka, but from
[00:18:46] Rijeka's perspective, the power plant, the question
[00:18:49] of solving waste management, for Novi list,
[00:18:52] the designer of Danish
[00:18:55] Copenhill spoke. We know that in the capital of Denmark,
[00:18:59] there is also a power plant which is even used
[00:19:02] in winter months as a ski resort,
[00:19:05] a small ski resort, but... as some kind of public
[00:19:08] space in summer where citizens gather and
[00:19:12] where they use that space, even though it is
[00:19:15] a power plant, a place where waste is incinerated, we have in
[00:19:19] the end the example of the Vienna power plant
[00:19:22] which was designed by the famous architect Hundertwasser, which is
[00:19:25] also in the very center of the city, uh
[00:19:29] based on what, or what do the Danish
[00:19:32] designers say Rijeka can eventually expect if it goes in that
[00:19:36] direction? Yes, well, last week it was announced and we
[00:19:40] wrote a lot about it in Novi list, that
[00:19:43] four cities applied to the Environmental Protection
[00:19:46] Fund, so with their proposals for building
[00:19:49] these power plants, among other things, Rijeka is among these cities,
[00:19:53] so Novi list was the first to publish this
[00:19:56] story, in such a way that Mayor Iva Rinčić
[00:20:00] then, of course, confirmed that the city is considering
[00:20:03] building such a power plant, they haven't
[00:20:07] yet revealed which location is in question, but it can be assumed that
[00:20:11] they might want to remediate parts of some facilities that
[00:20:15] previously existed in Rijeka, Rijeka was, of course, very
[00:20:18] well-known and founded as
[00:20:22] a highly industrialized city, that industry has
[00:20:25] disappeared in some parts of the city in the meantime, so probably some
[00:20:29] of those urban areas would be suitable for building
[00:20:32] such a power plant, Mayor Rinčić has therefore
[00:20:36] already mm... confirmed to us that they are considering
[00:20:40] competing with the fund, with the fund for
[00:20:43] funds for designing such a power plant
[00:20:45] so that here in Rijeka then... waste would be processed not only from
[00:20:49] Rijeka's Marišćina landfill
[00:20:52] but also from Istria's Kaštijun, which is becoming a very big
[00:20:56] problem in Istria, well, Istria County has a session
[00:21:00] on Thursday on this topic,
[00:21:03] uh, then from Varaždin and I think somewhere from Slovenia
[00:21:07] that waste would be transported, so it would be economically
[00:21:10] justifiable and it would certainly mean a significant
[00:21:14] reduction in heating prices in Rijeka, which are extremely
[00:21:17] high in Rijeka, so that's one of... the models, I
[00:21:20] assume that that power plant would be
[00:21:24] built in the most modern way, and that's why we
[00:21:28] at Novi list were interested in talking to these
[00:21:31] designers, uh of Copenhill, these are
[00:21:35] people who actually worked on this project of that power plant which is actually
[00:21:39] completely integrated into the space which actually forms a typical
[00:21:43] urban unit that citizens use completely normally, now whether
[00:21:46] it's possible for us to dream of getting something like that in Rijeka or... somewhere in
[00:21:50] Croatia, we'll see, however, in any
[00:21:53] case, what is clear is that
[00:21:56] after the Gospić case, the topic of building
[00:22:00] incinerators or power plants, no matter how it is
[00:22:04] approached, no matter how it is professionally processed, because we are laymen
[00:22:07] probably Hrvoje and I, this, in any case, the topic
[00:22:11] of building power plants has ceased to be a taboo topic in
[00:22:15] Croatia, I would compare it approximately to what is happening at the European level
[00:22:19] with nuclear power plants. so after they were abolished that they stopped
[00:22:23] being built everywhere based on the then German policy
[00:22:25] mm it turned out with the energy
[00:22:29] crisis, the war in Ukraine, of course, that they are very much needed,
[00:22:33] similarly, Croatia has always rejected the possibility of incinerators,
[00:22:36] i.e. every local community where it was mentioned as
[00:22:40] an option rejected it,
[00:22:44] more and more, and when we saw all these cases about
[00:22:47] waste, it became clear to us... I mean, it's clear to everyone
[00:22:51] that it's better to have a well-regulated power plant than such
[00:22:54] unregulated landfills, especially with hazardous waste,
[00:22:58] what Novi list is doing these days, among
[00:23:01] other things, and following is this topic of hazardous
[00:23:05] waste from Gospić that ended up
[00:23:08] in Senj, i.e. in the Velebit Nature Park, our
[00:23:12] journalists will be there today and will talk
[00:23:16] to citizens and the city administration in Senj after the investigation
[00:23:20] showed that mm
[00:23:23] the head of the utility company in Senj
[00:23:26] was involved in
[00:23:30] this whole affair. Another conversation that today's Novi
[00:23:33] list brings is Ljubo Jurčić who says that the problem
[00:23:37] is not the rebalance, but the existing model,
[00:23:40] i.e. the economic model. The government proposed a rebalance on Friday,
[00:23:44] it will, of course, most likely be adopted, if there are any minor changes, which
[00:23:47] there probably won't be. Uh, but again, on the other
[00:23:50] hand, we were just now
[00:23:53] talking with Zvonimir Savić about, Savić,
[00:23:56] pardon, about reforms, the national recovery and resilience plan,
[00:23:59] about the fact that Croatia is incredibly successful in
[00:24:03] uh, drawing money from European funds, in
[00:24:06] implementing reforms, some things still
[00:24:10] remain a sore spot, here specifically Croatian
[00:24:12] healthcare, somewhere waiting lists have
[00:24:15] been reduced, but money is flowing out of that system
[00:24:18] on all sides. Citizens are hardly satisfied with the quality of that
[00:24:22] system, where is the truth, or where
[00:24:26] is something that is a result of concrete
[00:24:30] changes and where are things that are actually very good just
[00:24:34] because the administration bureaucracy within the current
[00:24:38] framework of Andrej Plenković knows how to talk to the European
[00:24:41] Commission? Yes, well, let's start from
[00:24:45] the beginning, this is uh, a
[00:24:48] conversation with Professor Ljubo. Jurčić, or rather he commented on
[00:24:52] the budget for us, not in the form of an interview, but in the form
[00:24:55] of a text, of course we know approximately what his
[00:24:58] premises are, right, he always talks about industrial policies, about
[00:25:01] regional development, that's what he means when he says that the economic model
[00:25:05] is wrongly set up, or that there are no reforms
[00:25:08] uh in Croatia, so On the other hand, I listened to a large
[00:25:11] part of this conversation, uh with Mr. Savić, which was actually quite
[00:25:15] interesting. It showed that we will... the new newspaper will also
[00:25:19] write more extensively in the coming days about the budget rebalance and analyze it
[00:25:22] in more depth. What is becoming apparent is that the announcements that there would
[00:25:26] need to be cuts of more than a billion euros have actually been covered
[00:25:30] by good tax revenues and good tax collection during the summer
[00:25:33] and during this part of the year, so
[00:25:37] until today. So, as far as we can see, the government is not so
[00:25:40] worried, and they think that there will not be any problems
[00:25:44] with that budget. It's clear, we all know that the budget
[00:25:47] for defense is growing, which is visible at the
[00:25:51] Croatian level, and everything else is, of course, a topic for
[00:25:54] discussion. Uh, the only thing that will be an important factor
[00:25:58] for the government is that with this
[00:26:01] bragging that the budget is filling up well and that the situation is not as
[00:26:05] bad as it was perhaps thought, of course, strong union
[00:26:08] demands will arise from that. What colleagues in the morning paper are writing today,
[00:26:12] we will all deal with what the unions are asking for this week, so that is
[00:26:16] always - a balance, as I would say, six
[00:26:20] seven between the fact that if
[00:26:23] the budget revenues are good,
[00:26:27] then, of course, the union demands are growing. This applies to the minimum wage,
[00:26:29] and probably to all state and public services. We know that they were announced
[00:26:33] a salary increase of 3% in three installments
[00:26:36] (1 + 1 + 1), and now I believe
[00:26:40] all those unions will demand more, those in healthcare
[00:26:44] harmonization, so with
[00:26:47] the real, so the price of labor, the price per hour
[00:26:50] and so on, all the way to the minimum wage.
[00:26:53] pensions and so on, so when the government boasts of good
[00:26:57] results, then it must know that it will also have to be
[00:27:00] more generous to all
[00:27:02] categories. Again, on the other hand, let's not forget
[00:27:06] that 2027 is already an election year, so
[00:27:10] I think the unions might be more satisfied than they
[00:27:13] expect, that,
[00:27:17] uh, in a way, the morning paper also writes about this, saying
[00:27:20] that negotiations have begun on the minimum wage. Hup offers
[00:27:24] 1,087 euros, the unions
[00:27:27] 1,250, so there will be more
[00:27:31] topics for discussion. Finally, just one more
[00:27:34] question related to the front page of Večernji List, which
[00:27:37] says that Croats spent a record amount on
[00:27:41] foreign travel this year, that in the first
[00:27:44] six months alone, if I'm not mistaken, according to data from the Croatian
[00:27:47] National Bank, this increased by
[00:27:51] 27%, or even 233 million
[00:27:54] euros more. And, of course, on the cover is
[00:27:57] a quote from one of the interviewees from the text, Professor at the Zagreb
[00:28:01] Faculty, Faculty of Economics, Josip Mikulić says, it's not
[00:28:04] all just because people are fleeing domestic prices, surely
[00:28:08] one part of the reason is also that the purchasing
[00:28:12] power of the average citizen, especially of someone who
[00:28:16] perhaps has some activity in tourism in addition to their
[00:28:20] permanent employment, their purchasing power is quite
[00:28:23] surely growing, but... but it would be worth discussing
[00:28:27] whether some people in Croatia have obviously
[00:28:30] looked for some slightly
[00:28:33] cheaper prices for holidays outside of
[00:28:36] Croatia? Well, I would agree with what
[00:28:39] the interviewee from the colleagues from Večernji said,
[00:28:41] so there are certainly several
[00:28:43] factors here: first, low-cost companies and cheap flights, so that is
[00:28:47] certainly one of the reasons, of course, if you can fly
[00:28:51] to Malmö for 15 euros, everyone will try to take advantage of
[00:28:54] the situation. Secondly, the prices in Croatia itself are
[00:28:58] enormous during the season, and why wouldn't someone
[00:29:02] travel to Italy or Spain where accommodation is cheaper than in Croatia?
[00:29:06] So that's just common sense.
[00:29:10] Uh, but that speaks to Croatia's tourism problems
[00:29:14] and the fact that prices are being exaggerated, that in the long run it certainly
[00:29:17] harms the overall image and
[00:29:21] perception of Croatia in the eyes of foreign
[00:29:24] tourists. So we know what kind of crisis there is in Germany, we know how careful
[00:29:27] those guests are, mm. So, in my opinion, Croatia is in some
[00:29:30] way playing with its
[00:29:32] prices, but this season we somehow survived, so
[00:29:36] I don't know, some luck always appears above Croats' heads.
[00:29:40] On the other hand, regarding the purchasing power of Croats,
[00:29:43] probably someone who works in multiple activities, i.e., in their workplace,
[00:29:47] earns touristically, of course, such a person has higher
[00:29:49] purchasing power and can afford a trip, but
[00:29:53] I would say that the largest part of this is actually related
[00:29:56] to cheap
[00:30:00] flights. I think that is a great motivation for many to
[00:30:03] travel outside Croatia, if those flights cost a few hundred euros,
[00:30:06] instead of a few tens of euros, then I believe it would be a different story,
[00:30:09] a significantly different story, quite, quite surely. We will, of course, follow
[00:30:12] all these topics further, Tihana, thank you very much for being our
[00:30:16] guest, thank you. Greetings.
[00:30:19] After this conversation, we will take a short break. Stay with us. In the continuation,
[00:30:23] we bring you these stories.
