lpv:translated text	". I voted in favour of adopting the progress report on Croatia because I think that the EU accession process highlights the significant improvement in the situation in this area. Indeed, respect for fundamental rights, the situation of refugees and the privatisation of the shipping sector are the most advanced chapters. I would also like to welcome at this point the implementation of the peace agreement and everything that this entails. Cooperation with the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia is crucial to the successful conclusion of the negotiations. I hope in the future that the Croatian authorities will allow investigators to have access to the necessary documents. One of the issues mentioned in the document is war crime trials. Those who have been brought to justice are either not convicted or receive token punishments. I wish to stress the importance of administering a fair justice system for any candidate country. The legacy of conflict in the 1990s and a lack of respect for minorities’ rights are unacceptable from a future Member State. Legislative intervention is desired in this area. The Hungarian Presidency’s intention to complete the negotiations by the end of the first six months in 2011 is commendable and Croatia can potentially cross the finishing line on time. Its accession will send out a positive signal in the region, reaffirming the EU’s credibility with regard to the conditionality of this process. I wish to end by confirming Romania’s unreserved support for Croatia’s accession to the EU."@en1
