SAF preparedness for wartime action remains insufficient

By: J.S., STA

President Borut Pahor received the annual report on the preparedness of the Slovenian Armed Forces (SAF) in which the SAF general staff assessed the force’s preparedness in 2020 was good for peace time, but insufficient for war operations.

The assessment thus remains the same as for the year before. Pahor accepted the latest report with the “justified hope that it will improve considerably in the coming years”, pointing to the law securing EUR 780 million for investment in SAF by 2026. Defence Minister Matej Tonin promised Pahor an effort to make procurement transparent.
