Katanic says that the diplomas obtained in Serbia and BiH do not meet the required criteria, and the paper received confirmation from the Croatian Agency for Science and Higher Education. 

"Glas Slavonije" states that these claims "will worry a lot of Croatian students who are studying in mentioned countries, and people from Slavonia are certainly leading in numbers".

They explain from the Agency for Higher Education that "recognition of foreign higher education qualifications in Europe and EU member states are being implemented according to the so-called Lisbon Convention".

- In the case of the criterion of accreditation of foreign higher education institution, the credibility of the competent accreditation body is important, that is, that it has undergone relevant international evaluation, which, unfortunately, has recently not been the case with any competent agency for external quality assurance in higher education in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Republic of Serbia -  they said in the Croatian Agency for Science and Higher Education.
