Slovenia Weekly: The path to lasting peace

Slovenia advocates an immediate ceasefire in Ukraine, as stated by Prime Minister Robert Golob after the meeting of Kyiv's allies in Paris. The Prime Minister attended the meeting at the invitation of the host, French President Emmanuel Macron.

"As a non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, Slovenia has a special responsibility to do everything possible to achieve lasting peace in Ukraine. This makes our participation in Paris all the more important," he said.

The Prime Minister reiterated that Slovenia had no intention of joining the coalition of the willing. "However, if coordination is taken over by organisations such as the United Nations, Slovenia will seriously consider participating in peace-keeping efforts, as the UN's role and mandate are always clearly and democratically defined," the Prime Minister's Office press release stated.
