Communications Office

Ljubljana – Prime Minister Robert Golob has proposed that TV Slovenija journalist Petra Bezjak Cirman be appointed the new head of the government Communications Office (UKOM). Earlier on Wednesday, the prime minister’s office confirmed for the STA that Dragan Barbutovski was leaving the post after just over two months on the job.

Ljubljana – Slovenia is allegedly the only EU member to have failed to send its contribution for Commission’s second rule of law report by now, unofficial sources say. The deadline for member states to do so was 8 March. Slovenia’s Foreign Minister Anže Logar said the country will send its report on time. In the evening the government approved the document.

The IMF head of Communications Office, Gerry Rice has denied a report by Reuters news agency that it would abandon the Greek bailout program and take on an advisory role.
