Slovenia Must Still be Relaxed, Panel Hears

Ljubljana, 12 June - Participants of Tuesday's panel by an association of right-leaning thinkers have said that Slovenia is not relaxed enough. In their addresses, participants of the event organised by the Assembly for the Republic hailed the late dissident Joze Pucnik as a model of democracy and welcomed the government's decision to name Ljubljana's international airport after him.
