The handling of the coronavirus pandemic and distrust in the old parties caused the political realignment following the elections in Slovenia, said the Ambassador analysing the results. At Monday's Ambassador Talk event, not only did Marjan Cencen present the political situation in our south-western neighbour, but he also spoke about his duties as an ambassador and the challenges of his job.
In response to questions from László Bálint Tóth, researcher at the School of Social Sciences and History, the Ambassador also spoke about Slovenia's relations with Hungary, which, in his opinion, have developed significantly in recent years and are based on a solid partnership.
Ambassador Talks series was launched at MCC in spring 2021. In this framework, currently active ambassadors present the characteristics of their country or their country of residence, their relations with Hungary and their diplomatic experiences. An important part of each event is the Q&A session with questions from the participating students and academics. The aim of the program is to give students an insight into Hungary's day-to-day relations with other countries, to learn about the characteristics of the partner countries and to get to know the work, daily life and challenges of ambassadors and heads of mission.
