Full text

Following the March 2026 elections, Slovenia's newly appointed right-wing coalition government – led by Janez Janša in his fourth term – has launched an aggressive crackdown on independent civil society. Janša’s return follows a turbulent campaign marred by the Black Cube scandal involving an Israeli intelligence firm.

This poses danger to civil society, fundamental rights and freedoms of citizens, and will also have a significant impact on the protection of digital rights in Slovenia.
