Janša denies any blame for ballooning of TEŠ 6 costs

Ljubljana, 17 March - Former PM Janez Janša, whose 2004-2008 government launched the TEŠ 6 power plant project, rejected before a parliamentary inquiry commission on Friday any responsibility for the exploded construction costs. He argued 2009 was the year when things could have been stopped and that there was little left to do in 2012, when he was in power again.
