Diplomatic Reset: The government also ended a ban on imports from Jewish settlements in the occupied West Bank and has moved to reframe ties after last year’s Gaza-related measures under PM Robert Golob, with Israel planning to open an embassy in Slovenia. Border Management: Slovenia also ended stationary police checks at its borders with Croatia and Hungary from 12 June, shifting to more mobile, targeted controls to ease summer traffic while addressing migration concerns. Human Rights Watch: Ukraine’s ombudsman representative told the UN that the number of people with disabilities has risen by about 600,000 since 2022, reaching 3.4 million, with further increases feared as veterans return. Global Context: The 2026 Global Peace Index put Slovenia among the most peaceful in Europe, while Cyprus fell nine places to 80th.
