PM Jansa Meets Diplomats Accredited to Slovenia
At a reception for diplomats and ambassadors at Brdo pri Kranju on Wednesday, PM Janez Jansa stressed that as an EU and NATO member, Slovenia would continue to support the open-door policy for all countries of the Western Balkans.
Slovenia has accepted the challenge of greater international responsibility. In the past year it joined numerous humanitarian and peace-keeping missions as well as economical and cultural projects of the international community, Jansa said.
Slovenia had completed a "very dynamic and exciting year", and will continue this year with the implementation of its foreign policy priorities and pay much attention to nurturing good relations with its neighbours, according to Jansa.
Addressing the reception on behalf of the diplomatic corps, Papal Nuncio in Slovenia Santos Abril y Castello stressed that Slovenia had walked a "long and positive path". He is convinced that by chairing the OSCE it had successfully passed an international examination.
Due to previous engagements, the traditional post-New Year's reception for diplomats could not be attended by President Janez Drnovsek.
