Ambassador Harrington meets with Mayor Milan Bandić

Ambassador Harrington discussed joint initiatives with the City of Zagreb.

On Thursday 31 March, Ambassador Tim Harrington met with the Mayor of Zagreb, Mr. Milan Bandić, to discuss co-operation between the City and the Embassy. The Ambassador and the Mayor discussed ideas for cultural co-operation, trade and economic links. They also discussed ways in which the Embassy could help the City of Zagreb to co-operate better with cities in Ireland, most notably with Dublin.

The Embassy has planned a number of activities this year in the Croatian capital, including the upcoming Zagreb Book Festival, which will take place between 16-22 May. A number of Irish authors will be in Zagreb for the event.

Co-operation with the City of Zagreb will ensure that this and other initiatives are successful.
