Slovenian politicians are officially on the side of the European Union, the global West and NATO when it comes to Russia and its war of conquest in Ukraine. But that is true only on the surface. Slovenian politicians are otherwise very reconciliatory with the Kremlin. Not only the “peacemakers” Türk and Kučan, even current politicians …
There is no shortage of nuclear sabre-rattling in Russian propaganda.

On the 5th of December 2022, in a spectacular action (using a break-in by smashing glass on the windows), police officers (and supposedly also agents of the Slovenian Intelligence and Security Agency – SOVA) broke into a house in Ljubljana’s Črnuče district and quickly arrested a married couple …
