German Chancellor Merkel to Attend EPP Election Rally in Zagreb

ZAGREB, April 28, 2019 – German Chancellor Angela Merkel will attend an election rally of the European People’s Party in Zagreb in May, which will be her first appearance at rallies outside Germany, and she will also meet with Prime Minister Andrej Plenković, government spokesman Marko Milić confirmed to Hina.

Merkel and the favourite for the next European Commission President, lead candidate Manfred Weber, will attend the central EPP election rally in Zagreb on May 18.

Merkel’s visit to Zagreb, after Plenković’s two visits to Berlin during his current term, confirms the ever closer Croatian-German relations, the government said.

Choosing Zagreb as the host of the central EPP rally ahead of elections for the European Parliament confirms the good relations between Chancellor Merkel and Prime Minister Plenković, as well as the HDZ’s work in the EPP and Croatia’s position in the European Council, Milić said.
