Abstract

An example of Croatia's successful transition is the completion of our preparations for NATO membership. Joining the Partnership for Peace programme was an earlier expression of the idea that Croatia belongs to the Euro-Atlantic community. It also marked Croatia's first formal participation in Western security structures.

After six MAP cycles, Croatia received an invitation to join NATO at the summit held on 2-4 April 2008 in Bucharest.
