Coalition parties agree to cancel referendum on Krško 2

Ljubljana, 21 October - The coalition Freedom Movement, SocDems and the Left have agreed to cancel the 24 November referendum on a second unit at the Krško nuclear power station after it became clear that the public does not feel sufficiently informed about the project. The opposition Democrats (SDS) proposed calling off the vote earlier on Monday.
