Slovenia is in a state of political deadlock after last month’s knife edge election resulted in no party winning enough seats to govern by themselves.

Incumbent PM Robert Golob failed to form a coalition that would have kept him in power, which could spell yet another return for Janez Jansa.

That could have a big impact on Slovenia’s foreign policy with Jansa’s euroscepticism and pro Trump outlook.
