U.S. Ambassador Speaks on Misunderstandings with Slovene Media

Ljubljana, 29 November - His statement about Slovenia's return of property to optanti as a NATO membership criterion was a misunderstanding, reiterated the new U.S. Ambassador to Slovenia Johnny Young late on Wednesday for the Slovene television on Odmevi. Young stressed that he does not speak for NATO, but only on behalf of the U.S., however what he said about denationalisation was nothing revolutionary, as Slovenia is actually discussing the issue with NATO and the EU, added Young.
