GOVSI podcasts on 20 years of Slovenia's membership in the EU
We have invited various guests, from current government representatives and individuals who have made significant contributions to the accession, to experts and academics who can analyze and comment on current events and the future challenges of the European Union and Slovenia.
You are invited to listen and watch.
Romano Prodi
The guest of the fifth episode of the GOVSI podcast is Romano Prodi. We invited him to talk to host Nataša Čepar on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of Slovenia's accession to the EU. They also discussed relations between Slovenia and Italy and current events in world politics.
This episode was recorded on May 9th in Nova Gorica in collaboration with the media company Delo.
Nina Gregori
The topic of the fourth episode of the podcast is migration. Guest of Zoran Potič is the executive director of the European Asylum Agency, Nina Gregori, who has been working in this area for her entire career. Before going abroad, for many years she was the director of the directorate at the Ministry of the Interior, which is in charge of citizenships, regulation of population statuses and migration. She is an excellent expert in this field, so a one-hour conversation is too short to be able to cover many current aspects of this issue.
Dr Emil Erjavec
The guest of the 3rd episode of the GOVSI government podcast is Dr Emil Erjavec. During the negotiations for EU accession, he was a member of the core negotiating team for agriculture and fisheries, the "expert engine" of the negotiations for agriculture. He is a highly popular professor at the Biotechnical Faculty and above all, a great expert in agricultural policy. The discussion was moderated by Petra Bezjak Cirman, Director of the Government Communications Office.
Dr Janez Potočnik
The guest of the 2nd episode of the GOVSI government podcast is Dr Janez Potočnik: during the preparations for Slovenia's accession to the EU, he was the head of the EU Accession Negotiating Group, then European Commissioner for two terms, and today he is a member and co-chair of the UN's International Panel on Resources. The discussion was moderated by Petra Bezjak Cirman, Director of the Government Communications Office.
Ministers Tanja Fajon and Marjan Šarec
How has 20 years of membership in the EU and NATO influenced the development of Slovenia and what will be the role of both integrations in the changing global world? In the first episode of the GOVSI podcast, host Boštjan Lajovic hosts Minister of Foreign and European Affairs Tanja Fajon and Minister of Defense Marjan Šarec.
