Croatia–Sweden relations are foreign relations between Croatia and Sweden. Both countries established diplomatic relations on 29 January 1992. Croatia has an embassy in Stockholm. Sweden has an embassy in Zagreb and 2 honorary consulates (in Rijeka and Split).
Both countries are members of the European Union, Council of Europe and NATO. Croatia strongly supported Sweden's NATO membership during the latter's accession process.
History[edit]
Croatian president Zoran Milanović stated that his country should block ratification of Sweden's NATO accession until electoral reform measures are implemented in neighbouring Bosnia and Herzegovina, though the Foreign Minister expressed the government's support for any application.[1] In July 2022, Croatia have fully ratified Sweden's NATO membership application.[2]
European Union[edit]
Sweden joined the EU in 1995. Croatia joined the EU in 2013.
NATO[edit]
While Croatia became a member of NATO in 2009, Sweden has only initiated accession process in 2022. Croatian parliament voted nearly unanimously in support of Sweden's accession into the alliance.
