Croatia's EU leap

http://www.euronews.net/ The referendum in Croatia on whether to join the European Union has come out in favour. If all goes to plan, the state of 4,300,000 people on the eastern shore of the Adriatic Sea will become the 28th member of the bloc by July 2013. But although two thirds of voters said 'yes', just 44 percent of those eligible to participate did so in Sunday's ballot. This seemed to point to resignation rather than enthusiasm.




In Zagreb, the capital, one citizen said: "I believe it is a good thing. I think it means my six children will have a good future ahead of them."
