Their visibility and reputation goes beyond the borders of their countries, their views, opinions and advices are still important in the wider region. They are still active, some say they have strong political influence. They have triggered processes that continue to exist today, so it will be interesting to hear how they look at these processes today, how they judge them from today's perspective, what they think about the future.
In the relaxed atmosphere we will walk through the path of independence and transition. We will be interested in the future of Slovenia, Croatia, the EU and the Western Balkan region. We will also discuss current state relations, how to find common solutions and ensure a better future.
