Independent

Founded: 2024

Ownership

Info360 is a Slovenian online/video news outlet launched in October 2024 and published by the company Media X (filmska in video produkcija, d.o.o.). Media X is controlled by the wealthy entrepreneur Ales Strancar (founder of biotech firm BIA Separations/Sartorius BIA), through his media-investment interests. The responsible editor is Vesna Zadravec, a former long-time RTV Slovenija manager; contributors include several ex-Delo journalists.

Funding

Funded by its owner Ales Strancar (owner subsidy/private capital) as a new media project, supplemented by advertising; it is not a public-budget or subscription-driven outlet.

Affiliation & stance

Owned by a single wealthy businessman and editorially aligned with Slovenia's political right, Info360 is frequently described by other media as critical of the center-left Golob government and favorable to the center-right SDS-aligned opposition. Because control sits with one owner pursuing a clear ideological, opposition-aligned editorial line, it is best classified as DEPENDENT (owner/politically-aligned), notwithstanding its private commercial form; at minimum it is a private outlet with a strong center-right lean.

The class for himself: the wimp before the Tour has increased the advantage over Vingegaard

Tadej Pogačar currently leads the cycling rankings with 11,593 points, significantly ahead of Jonas Vingegaard, who has 8,625 points and won last year's Giro d'Italia. Pogačar's teammate Isaac del Toro ranks third with 5,340 points. Pogačar recently secured three stages and a team victory at the Swiss race, preparing him for his upcoming Tour de France campaign, where he aims to win his fifth overall title, matching a record. In the all-time weekly ranking, Pogačar is 248th, while his compatriot Primož Roglič holds the second spot with 75 weeks at the top. Roglič has climbed three places to become the 43rd best cyclist globally. Other Slovenian cyclists like Matej Mohorič and Jakob Omrzel are among the top 200 riders and will likely compete at the national championships. Slovenia's top eight cyclists have enough combined points to secure fourth place in the national standings, behind Belgium, Denmark, and France. In women's cycling, Dutch rider Demi Vollering leads with 6,705 points, followed by Spanish rider Paula Blasi and another Dutch cyclist Anna van der Breggen. Slovenian cyclist Urška Žigart, after suffering a jaw fracture during the Swiss race, has dropped to 37th in the U2

Has the Constitutional Court disregarded the rule of law and ruled in favour of the usurpers of RTV?

The Constitutional Court of Slovenia has reportedly made a decision in the case involving RTV (Radio Television of Slovenia), with five judges voting against two. This decision could be seen as a blow to the rule of law, as critics argue the entire process surrounding the new RTV law has been heavily influenced by politics rather than legal or professional standards. The court previously stated it would not make content-related decisions, which confused many due to the significance of the issue for a key public institution. Two judges were excluded from the decision-making process due to potential conflicts of interest, including President Rok Čeferin, who has ties to a law firm associated with RTV, and Neža Kogovšek Šalamon, who worked at the Peace Institute involved in the referendum campaign related to the RTV law. Critics argue the new RTV law was politically motivated, giving significant influence over editorial policies to a leftist faction. The process was further complicated by legal challenges and lack of broad consensus, with opponents claiming the law allows any ruling party to reshape RTV according to their agenda.

The article reports on recent developments in Slovenia's parliamentary politics, focusing on opposition efforts to hold an extraordinary session of the National Assembly (DZ) to establish two parliamentary investigations. The opposition, led by the Freedom Party (Svoboda), plans to submit another request for such a session if the current scenario repeats. They are also considering a constitutional complaint against the speaker of parliament. A referendum initiative to amend the law on parliamentary investigations has collected over three-quarters of the required signatures, with more needed by July 14. The proposed amendment could threaten human rights, according to the initiators, who include former members of the Human Rights Protection Committee. The day’s agenda for the extraordinary session, which aimed to address investigations into Black Cube and party financing, was not approved. The Speaker of the National Assembly ended the session due to this failure. Opposition leaders criticized the session as an attack on democracy, while the ruling party accused the opposition of lacking attendance and transparency. There were also technical issues with voting equipment, leading to a

Ziga Fatty leaves the head of the SDH without a severance package

The Supervisory Board of Slovenia's State Holding (SDH) has agreed with CEO Žiga Debeljak to end his leadership of the holding by September 30th without a transition period. The board has already announced a call for a successor. SDH confirms that the management, including Janez Tomšič from the NSi faction, will ensure normal operations in line with the annual plan. They note that the book value of capital investments increased from 11.2 billion euros at the end of 2022 to 14 billion euros at the end of last year. The state owns shares in over 50 companies through SDH, including Dars, electricity distribution firms, HSE, Gen Energija, Post Slovenija, Telekom, and Triglav Insurance. Average profitability of state-owned capital managed by SDH was 9.5% between 2023-2025, with these companies expected to distribute over 1.3 billion euros in dividends to the state budget between 2023-2026. Prime Minister Janša’s government plans to abolish SDH, aiming to transfer state investments to a demographic fund, with draft legislation already submitted for inter-ministerial coordination.

This is a duck. I do twice as much as everyone else combined.

The article discusses Branko Grims' response to accusations from the European People's Party (EPP) regarding his low attendance at parliamentary group meetings over two years. Grims claims he has participated in many meetings and was present with Lene Düpont on some occasions, while denying that other EPP members were absent. He argues that the criticism stems from his commitment to defending values he promised voters, including opposing 'LGBTIQ+ indoctrination of children,' advocating for the cessation of green transitions, reducing bureaucratic burdens on businesses, tax cuts, and protecting borders. Grims also criticizes the expansion of EU authority, citing the European Court of Justice’s ruling against Hungary’s child protection law as an example. While he supported a radical right initiative against the European Commission, he later withdrew his signature but was absent during the vote. The article notes his participation in conferences with far-right groups and support for Viktor Orbán’s actions. Grims denies being too right-wing for the European People's Party, insisting he advocates for 'child protection, women's protection, citizen security, economic success, border保护, 和欧

After a heatwave, a strong storm hits, heavy snow in the Alps (VIDEO)

An intense weather shift has hit Italy after a recent heatwave, bringing strong storms with hail and winds exceeding 100 km/h. These extreme conditions caused flooding, damaged roofs, and uprooted trees, while snowfall was reported in the Alps despite being July. The meteorological change is attributed to a cold front from northern Europe colliding with the unusually warm air mass that had been lingering over Italy. Authorities have issued orange warnings for much of Lombardy and yellow alerts for several regions, including Veneto and Emilia-Romagna. While the cooler weather provides temporary relief, forecasts suggest another heatwave could return by the end of the week, prompting advice to monitor weather updates and adjust travel plans accordingly.

Zakaj se opozicijski poslanci bojijo preiskave o Black Cube?

The parliamentary investigation into the Black Cube affair, which involved allegations of illegal financing of political parties, was rejected during a session of the National Assembly on Tuesday. The investigation had initially aimed to look into claims that the Slovenian Democratic Party (SDS) ordered surveillance and recordings implicating individuals linked to the previous government in deep-state activities. However, the investigation was halted due to the failure to confirm the agenda of the extraordinary session. Left-wing opposition members, including those from the Freedom Party (LS), Social Democrats (SD), and the Left (Leva), contributed to the rejection by either not attending or abstaining from voting. Notably, prominent figures such as Robert Golob and Matjaž Han did not attend the session. The recordings from the Black Cube scandal implicated several high-profile individuals, including former Justice Minister Dominika Švarc Pipan, who claimed that then-Prime Minister Robert Golob still exerted significant influence over GEN-I, despite his formal resignation. These revelations were seen as exposing deep-state operations involving politicians like Zoran Janković and ex

The secretary of state is said to be under investigation for alleged corruption.

The article reports that a specialized state prosecutor has initiated an investigation into the corruption allegations against Damijan Jaklin, the State Secretary at the Ministry of Infrastructure and Energy, and Zupan of Velika Polana. According to POP TV, the criminal investigators allege that Jaklin abused his position, accepted bribes, and engaged in money laundering related to the construction of an approximately eight million euro section of the Pomurska water pipeline. The report claims Jaklin illegally received over 60,000 euros, mostly in cash, through fictitious contracts and companies used as shell entities. The alleged fictitious contracts involved Serbian construction company MPP Jedinstvo and the company JHP under the leadership of Jane Habjan, who was overseeing the construction project. Habjan allegedly received a 15% commission. The report mentions that investigators had access to SMS messages between the alleged parties and a table describing their alleged conduct, which one of the parties provided and was later found on Habjan’s computer during home searches. Jaklin denied any involvement, stating he was not aware of any proceedings or home searches and claimed他曾

Evrska inflacija se umirja, Slovenija ostaja nad evropskim povprečjem

The inflation rate in the euro area fell again in June, reaching 2.8%, down by 0.4 percentage points compared to May, according to preliminary data from Eurostat. However, this remains above the European Central Bank's (ECB) medium-term target of two percent. Slovenia's inflation rate was 3.7% in June, significantly higher than the euro zone average. Energy prices remained the largest contributor to inflation at 8.7%, though there was a slight decline compared to May. Services also contributed significantly, with a 3.2% increase in prices. Food, alcohol, and tobacco saw a slower rise in prices, while non-energy industrial goods had minimal price increases. Despite these reductions, inflation has not yet reached the level considered stable by the ECB. Slovenia continues to experience notably higher inflation than the euro zone average, which impacts household living costs and purchasing power.

Arguing, chaos, swearing... that's how you get a seat on the bus to Piran

The article describes a chaotic experience at Ljubljana Bus Station where a passenger encountered overcrowding and difficulty boarding a bus to Piran. The passenger arrived early but was forced to wait in line due to excessive numbers exceeding the bus capacity. Elderly passengers were given priority, leaving the individual waiting outside the bus. The situation highlights inefficiencies in Slovenia’s public transportation system, particularly the lack of seat reservations and crowd management. The bus station apologized for the incident and explained that while they manage infrastructure, the scheduling and capacity issues fall under the jurisdiction of Dujpp, the organization responsible for public transport. The article questions why such basic services, common in developed countries, are lacking in Slovenia’s capital.

Request for an audit of Pigeon's public finances, he spent too much

The article discusses a parliamentary request for a review of the financial management under the previous government led by Robert Golob. The coalition including SDS, NSi, SLS, Fokus, and Demokrati, along with Anže Logar and Resni.ca, has submitted a motion calling for an urgent session of the Finance Committee. They accuse the Golob administration of fiscal irresponsibility, irrational public spending, and poor management of taxpayers' money. The coalition highlights increased budget outflows at the end of the mandate, delays in accessing European funds, and missed key development projects. They demand a comprehensive discussion on the efficiency of public finances and responsibility in public spending. The proposed measures include a six-month review of past public spending and an assessment of potential cost reductions to meet Maastricht criteria by 2026. The current government has set lower seasonal expenditure quotas for the third quarter, aiming to limit new obligations while preparing the budget balance.

Why was the mayor of Ljubljana shown a yellow card?

The Civil Initiative for Ljubljana is preparing for a municipal referendum on a parking regulation decision scheduled for July 12th. The initiative launched an action titled 'Show the Mayor a Yellow Card' to protest against the mayor's attempt to withdraw the decision. The regulation introduced paid parking and permits for residents in all Ljubljana neighborhoods. Although the Municipal Council temporarily withdrew the decision, the initiative argues this withdrawal is legally questionable, claiming it was only permissible if the decision was unconstitutional, illegal, or inconsistent. Mayor Zoran Janković maintains the withdrawal was legal and believes the initiators should cancel the referendum since they achieved their goal. The initiative insists on continuing, arguing that Ljubljana belongs to all its citizens, not just a narrow group of elites. They criticize the mayor for avoiding political responsibility by using legal maneuvers and highlight issues with infrastructure projects and public transportation.
