Slovenia looks set for a new election after the country’s president, Borut Pahor, told parliament that he would not nominate a candidate for prime minister as no party could muster majority support in parliament. The anti-immigrant Slovenian Democratic Party (SDS) won the country’s general election on June 3, but has been unable to convince other parties to join it in a coalition government.
Parliament is expected to convene on July 27, when it will set another 14-day period during which members can nominate candidates for prime minister.
Mr Pahor has warned however that he believes “no one enjoys sufficient support to be elected.”
