Boris Mijić has resigned from his position after it was revealed he had falsely presented himself as an engineer. This development comes amid a day of varied domestic news, including a major telecommunications deal facing potential failure and a political challenge to the current government. In the business sector, there are now slim chances for the successful conclusion of Telemach's proposed takeover of T2. Meanwhile, the country's electoral system is under scrutiny, with questions raised about the State Election Commission's responsibility for past shortcomings, such as long queues during voting. Politically, Robert Golob, leader of the Freedom Movement and former Prime Minister, has publicly challenged current Prime Minister Janez Janša to call early elections. Health Minister Tadej Ostrc intends to accelerate the sale of alcoholic and tobacco products through a new law, a policy push that follows earlier allegations of questionable financial deals regarding unseen advertisements.
