Slovenian PM resigns, calls snap election

Slovenian prime minister Marjan Sarec on Monday resigned and called for an early election after his government failed to push through key legislation.

As EU observer news outlet reported, Slovenian president Borut Pahor is now negotiating with parties to see if a new coalition can be formed. However, Janez Jansa, leader of the opposition, populist, Slovenian Democratic Party, said that an early election was "by far the most likely option".
