Peterle and Tuerk Set Pace for Presidential Campaign

Ljubljana/Maribor, 24 September - Following the official start of the presidential election campaign last Friday, Lojze Peterle and Danilo Tuerk, two of the three front-runners in the race, were the first to offer a more detailed insight into their programmes. While Peterle wants a united and socially conscious Slovenia, Tuerk's priority is culture in its broadest sense.
