Regional leaders urge "continued transatlantic partnership"

The statement added it was also necessary "to bring in new energy into the process of EU enlargement as well as into the process of Euro-Atlantic integration so that Europe could be whole, free and peaceful."

According to the Croatian Hina news agency, the statement signed by regional leaders who met in the presence of the U.S. Vice President Joseph Biden and European Council President Donald Tusk and Austrian President Heinz Fischer.

The EU and the U.S. "expressed their strong commitment to promoting and supporting these European and Euro-Atlantic integration processes of the process member states."

The regional leaders discussed the global security situation and "agreed that regular dialogue at the operational level between the United States, the EU and Southeast European countries was necessary to successfully fight global security challenges."

"The current dramatic migrant crisis poses an unprecedented challenge from both the humanitarian and the security aspect and requires dialogue and agreement so as to better protect external EU borders and significantly cushion the migration pressure on countries exposed to it," the statement said.

The statement also condemned the recent terrorist attacks "in Paris, Ankara, Sinai, Beirut and Bamako" and "called for efficient global measures aimed at solving the causes of radicalism, violent extremism and terrorism."

The meeting in Zagreb was attended by presidents of Slovenia, Croatia, Montenegro, Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Serbia, and Kosovo.
