Foreign Minister Anže Logar and his Latvian counterpart Edgars Rinkevičs called for a diplomatic solution to the Ukraine crisis and for the EU’s unity on the issue as they met in Ljubljana.
Asked at a news conference how Slovenia could help Ukraine in the event of an attack, Logar said the country was coordinating activities with the EU and NATO and was ready to assist to the best of its abilities. The ministers also discussed ways to boost trade where the opening of a Slovenian embassy in Riga would help. Rinkevičs also met President Borut Pahor, Speaker Igor Zorčič, PM Janez Janša and Defence Minister Matej Tonin.
