Slovenian PM Marjan Sarec unexpectedly stepped down, abandoning his minority government after saying that it lacked sufficient support in parliament.
The collapse puts the Alpine euro-area country on track for its sixth government in 10 years, a period that included a double-dip recession, a
banking bailout and repeated political upheaval. The resignation also underscores the difficulty faced by newcomers from Italy to Ukraine who’ve tapped into popular anger over traditional politics to win power but struggle to rule.
Sarec was expected to submit his resignation to parliament on Monday.
“People are asking me, ‘Mr. Prime Minister, please do this, please do that,’” Sarec told a news conference in Ljubljana, the capital. “I agree with all their pleas and suggestions, but with this government I just can’t achieve it. That’s why
I think it is best to have early elections.”
