On behalf of the Slovenian Government, Prime Minister Janša and President Pahor wished all the guests a happy New Year and underlined the importance of good cooperation in tackling challenges imposed by the current pandemic. This traditional New Year's reception was also an opportunity to greet some of the ambassadors from CEF constituency and representatives of the international community in Slovenia.  We are thankful for their continuous support and excellent co-operation on the current and upcoming development projects in South East Europe, leveraging the trust and the respect we have built in recent years.
