The Prime Minister of Slovenia came in for stinging criticism this morning during a debate on the Slovene presidency of the EU which has just begun.
MEPs in the European Parliament in Strasbourg slammed Janez Janša (prn Yan-sha) for his attacks on the media in Slovenia and other rule of law issues including judicial independence and respect for minority rights.
