President Borut Pahor hosted a ceremony at the Presidential Palace and conferred state decorations on five deserving individuals to mark thirty years since Slovenia became a member of the UN.
By joining the organisation, it became a sovereign and equal member of the international community, thus successfully exercising the right to self-determination. Addressing the ceremony, Pahor said it was astonishing how quickly Slovenia had managed to carry out democratisation, declare independence, defend its territory and become internationally recognised.
