Croatian parliament resumes as political tensions and economic forecasts surface

The Croatian Sabor convened for its 13th session following a ten-day recess, opening with a parliamentary question time directed at Prime Minister Andrej Plenković and his cabinet. The session featured heated exchanges between the government and opposition lawmakers, alongside mounting public criticism from President Zoran Milanović over foreign policy and military concerns.

Separately, Plenković outlined key macroeconomic projections during a cabinet meeting, anticipating economic growth of approximately 2.1 percent in 2027 and a decline in inflation to 2.7 percent. The government also targets a budget deficit of 2.9 percent of GDP and a reduction of public debt to 55.3 percent. Meanwhile, anti-corruption authorities carried out police actions and arrests in Kutina targeting local corruption allegations.
