Janša Announces Personnel Talks as Coalition Formation Continues
Ljubljana – Newly elected Prime Minister Janez Janša initiated discussions on personnel changes this week, according to sources. These talks are occurring concurrently with ongoing negotiations to solidify the governing coalition and finalize the coalition agreement. The formation of Janša’s fourth government is also proceeding with considerable intensity.
While the appointment of several key figures appears largely settled, including the return of Gregor Zmajs Šircl and Manca Cigler Kralj, questions remain regarding the representation of the Slovenian National Party (SLS), which currently holds no parliamentary seat. Intensive discussions are focused on assigning portfolios, with preliminary teams being established within ministries. However, parties are emphasizing that definitive agreements are contingent upon full coalition consensus.
Informal conversations within the coalition parties consistently reiterate the phrase “until everything is agreed, nothing is agreed.” The process of reaching a fully agreed-upon personnel structure remains a central focus as the coalition works to establish its governing framework. The talks are expected to continue throughout the week.
