Stokelj Becomes European Parliament General Secretariat Director

Ciril Stokelj, former Slovenian ambassador at the EU, took up the office of European Parliament General Secretariat director responsible for inter-institutional cooperation and foreign policy on Thursday.

Stokelj became the highest-ranking parliament official among representatives from the ten new EU member states and is joining a handful of Slovenian officials holding top EU offices.
In January 2005, Ivan Bizjak, the former Slovenian justice minister, was appointed EU director general for justice and home affairs.
Zoran Stancic, former Slovenian state secretary, became deputy director general in the EU Directorate-General for Research in December 2004, and as of May 2005 Marjeta Jager has been working for the European Commission at its transport directorate.
Stokelj served as the Slovenian ambassador at the EU from 2002 to August this year. Before that he was ambassador to Spain.
