EC monitoring Croatia Airlines aid developments
NEWS FLASH
The European Commission has told EX-YU Aviation News it is in “close contact with Croatian authorities” after the government approved a 33.7 million euro cash injection into the carrier last month. Although the measure is contrary to EU regulations since the government had previously injected over 100 million euros into the airline in 2013, barring it from further aid until 2023, the Croatian Prime Minister, Andrej Plenković, has said he anticipates no difficulties with the European Union. “We explained the situation”, Mr Plenković noted. The Croatian government has said it will strictly monitor spending at the carrier as part of the capital injection, which will be used to overhaul two aircraft engines, pay off debt to suppliers and finance other investments.
