Abstract

Croatia joined the European Union in July 2013, becoming the 28th member state. Following the referendum on EU membership, however, a number of other referendums have been initiated by grassroots movements under the country’s Referendum Law, including an amendment to the Croatian constitution banning same-sex marriage (which passed in December 2013), and a referendum against the official use of Cyrillic script. In an interview with EUROPP’s Managing Editor Stuart Brown and LSEE’s Tena Prelec, Croatian Prime Minister Zoran Milanović discusses Croatia’s policy on EU reform, how the country has strengthened the rights of same-sex couples, and why his government will ensure the referendum on Cyrillic script will not take place.
