Regarding this report, it is important to point out that the majority of Members of the European Parliament are not happy about the fact that, according to Eurobarometer, the majority of the Croatian population believe that accession to the EU ‘would not benefit them’. What can be done to counter this perception? The answer, as always, is to increase the propaganda, seeking to manipulate the reality of what the EU is.
The same old neoliberal dogmas are being wheeled out: the reduction of state intervention in the economy, and the creation of an open and competitive market, by destroying public services, by changing labour relations in capital’s favour under the pretext of their ‘rigidity’, and by doing away with sovereignty and with an independent project for Croatia’s development.
Lastly, the report makes it very clear who the beneficiary of NATO’s aggression and the breakup of Yugoslavia was. Croatia is in a privileged location: it is a transport corridor of great importance for the import and export markets of the East and Far East. It is clear that accession to the EU is not to promote the right to development of Croatia and its people, but above all to benefit the great powers and their economic groups."@en1
