AGP Executive Report
Last update: 10 hours agoGovernment Switch: Slovenia’s parliament has elected right-wing veteran Janez Janša as prime minister for a fourth time, voting 51–36 and ending the post-election deadlock after Robert Golob’s liberal Freedom Movement failed to form a majority. Janša now has 15 days to propose his cabinet, with a coalition built around SDS plus New Slovenia, the Democrats, the People’s Party and Focus, and extra support from the Truth (Resnica) party. Protest & Legal Tension: As MPs met, protesters gathered outside parliament and an appeal was filed with the Constitutional Court over alleged foreign interference in the election. Policy Priorities: Janša’s pitch centers on democratisation, development, decentralisation, cutting red tape, and a tougher line on crime and corruption—while critics warn the agenda could tilt toward “Trumpisation.” Local Power: Municipalities broadly welcomed plans for more financial autonomy and decentralisation, even as watchdogs and some NGOs question how serious the anti-corruption push will be. Cycling Spotlight: Slovenia also moved to host the 2026 UEC Road European Championships in October, with major spectator and TV/digital reach expected.
