🦠 Outbreak

A new virus has been detected on three Slovenian farms, raising questions about potential risks to human health. This development comes as the customs office faces scrutiny for allegedly withholding information from the police regarding a seizure of 14 million cigarettes. In the political arena, a recent poll indicates a shrinking gap in support between the Slovenian Democratic Party (SDS), led by Prime Minister Janez Janša, and the Freedom Party. Meanwhile, former President Milan Kučan has called for national reflection on the country's direction, and a political dispute has erupted involving Aleš Hojs, a member of the National Assembly, following a state celebration. Further domestic news includes allegations of proof that an associate of Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of the Economy, Labour, and Sport Anže Logar forged a document, prompting questions about Logar's awareness. Additionally, the travel expenses of Borut Rončević, Minister of Education, Science and Youth, for a trip to Japan, costing over 32,000 euros, are under scrutiny, with the ministry reportedly withholding the ticket provider's name. Fuel prices have also seen a change, with gasoline becoming cheaper while diesel prices increased.
