In a post on X, PM Modi said he looked forward to working closely with the Slovenian leader to further deepen cooperation. "Heartiest congratulations to Mr. Janez Jansa on his election as the Prime Minister of Slovenia. I look forward to working closely with him to further strengthen our bilateral ties for the shared prosperity and mutual benefit of our people," the post read. Slovenia's parliament voted on May 22 to bring back right-wing leader Janez Jansa as Prime Minister, marking a political shift in the European Union member state after his previous term ended in 2022. According to Al Jazeera, lawmakers in the 90-member National Assembly voted 51-36 in favour of Jansa, ending a post-election deadlock that had persisted for weeks following a closely contested vote which took place in March.
