The officials expressed satisfaction with the two countries’ excellent and friendly relations that show vast potential for advancing the cooperation, pointing out the joint Croatian-Bulgarian foreign policy activities, such as the joint recognition of Kosovo in 2008, as well as this year’s joint recognition of the National transitional Council as the legitimate representation on the Libyan people and the legitimate authority in Libya.
