Look at the way that Asta Bag stabbed Frank Kangler.

On August 10, 2026, Slovenian politician Asta Vrečko (from the Left Party) shared a screenshot on social media platform X showing an image posted by former mayor of Maribor, Franc Kangler. The image featured Kangler’s photo with the caption 'Monday' and two emojis of monkeys with covered eyes. Vrečko commented on this post, referencing a recent government decision to abolish free Slovenian language courses for foreigners and introduce a 40% self-financing requirement. She suggested that the government might have canceled these free courses because they provide them for their own employees. This post highlights a political debate over language education policies affecting immigrants.
