Slovenia : political developments and data in 2024 : the rollercoaster of Slovenian politics

Krašovec, Alenka (author)

Slovenian voters were asked to decide on several topics at consultative referenda in 2024 alongside the European Parliament (EP) election, all held in June. The year brought mixed feelings concerning the coalition government. These ranged from several changes in ministerial positions, quite low support for individual government parties at the EP election, entanglement in corruption(-risk) affairs, a confrontation with doctors being on strike and judges protesting, to victory at all four referenda and certain progress with the promised reforms. The whole of Slovenian politics at the end of a year became embroiled in a farce with respect to the referendum on expanding the Krško nuclear power plant that, after it was called, was later abandoned. Politics was clearly divided on the question of recognising Palestine, whereas the party arena saw the (announcement) establishment of several new parties.
