By: J.S.,STA

Prime Minister Janez Janša indicated Slovenia was not planning public spending cuts, having weathered 2020 better than expected due to stimulus measures “We’re not planning any cuts. We’re planning a recovery this year,” he told the National Assembly.

Janša noted Slovenia’s economy had contracted by 5.5% last year, significantly outperforming some forecasts. Exports declined minimally and unemployment rose by just 1%.
