particularly important step towards stabilization of the 
situation in this country. The government congratulates 
Iraq's political leaders on their persistent and patient 
efforts towards building the widest possible consensus on 
the issues essential for further establishment of the Iraqi 
state, and expresses hope that the constitution would be 
accepted at the forthcoming referendum. Such development is 
of particular importance for overcoming security and 
developmental challenges that Iraq's society is faced with. 
The Government of Croatia also supports the international 
community's efforts aimed at helping political processes in 
Iraq which are related to the development of democracy and 
the rule of law as basic elements in building a stable and 
a secure environment, crucial for the development of Iraq 
as a prosperous and secure land for all of its citizens. 
The Republic of Croatia will continue to back the Iraqi 
authorities' efforts to establish peace and security and a 
stable democratic government. Opening of Croatia's special 
diplomatic mission in Baghdad is a an additional incentive 
in that direction."
