Ljubljana, 15 May - Slovenian Foreign Minister Karl Erjavec and Speaker Milan Brglez have condemned the violent response of Israeli forces to Monday's protests in Gaza. Erjavec said that the events would not have happened if it were not for the relocation of the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem which was inaugurated yesterday.
