In attendance were 35 delegations from EU member-countries and Southeast Europe, and representatives of a number of international organisations and initiatives, including the European Commission, the World Bank and the Stability Pact for Southeast Europe.
The event supported Slovenia's initiative for the establishment of a centre which would offer assistance to countries in European integration processes. The centre, which would be based in Ljubljana, would provide technical assistance and help transfer relevant knowledge.
Croatia's representative, European Integration Minister Kolinda Grabar-Kitarovic, told a news conference that her country was very glad to see that it would be able to cooperate with the centre.
Grabar Kitarovic said Southeast European countries were at different levels of the process of association with the European Union, and added that the experience of countries which recently joined the Union would be of great importance for Croatia.
Dutch Ambassador to Ljubljana, Jan Henneman, whose country is presiding over the EU, said the Western Balkans was one of the EU's priorities during the Dutch presidency.
