President Pahor expects snap election in second half of May

Ljubljana, 15 March - President Borut Pahor decided that he will not put forward a prime minister-designate for the approval of the National Assembly after Wednesday's resignation by Prime Minister Miro Cerar. He believes that it makes more sense to call early general elections, expectedly in the second half of May.
