According to the EU media, Croatia aims to become a euro zone member within the next seven to eight years, Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic said.
"We do not want to specify the exact dates, but we want Croatia to become a euro zone member within two government terms in office," Plenkovic told an economic conference devoted to the introduction of the euro in Croatia.
Croatia has been a member of the EU since 2013, but has not adopted the single currency yet. Its national currency is kuna.
