Oni su naglasili i da napredak Hrvatske dovodi do "novog zamajca za evropsku perspektivu zapadnog Balkana, pod uslovom da te zemlje nastave na putu reforme" i obećali da će o toj temi raspravljati na svom decembarskom samitu.
They also noted that Croatia's progress brings "a new momentum to the European perspective of the Western Balkans, provided these countries continue on the path of reform" and promised to discuss that matter at their December summit.
