Reports on the inner workings of a so-called 'Basement' propaganda unit suggest the Slovenian Democratic Party (SDS) has been coordinating alleged disinformation campaigns directly from the seat of government. The investigation names specific officials allegedly involved in discrediting political opponents, a tactic analysts describe as a fundamental tool of the current leadership.
The allegations of institutional decay extend to the National Assembly, where critics now view the leadership of Zoran Stevanović as a symbol of parliamentary decline. This atmosphere of friction is mirrored in recent high-level resignations; departing officials Tea Košir and Nataša Vidnar have made their resignation statements public, citing threats and fundamental disagreements with government decisions rather than the usual 'personal reasons'.
Ljubljana is preparing for an autumn mayoral race that pits longevity against a comeback. The incumbent Zoran Janković, who recently noted that a handshake matters more to him than high office, will face candidate Anton Rop. Meanwhile, the judiciary is attempting to assert itself; Damjan Oroz, the head of the Supreme Court, warned that the rule of law is being mentioned less frequently in public discourse, and that this silence should not be accepted.
