Meira Hot and Damijan Bezjak Zrim: The holidays of Prekmurje and Primorska deserve to be celebrated every year

The article discusses the proposal by Slovenian MPs Damijan Bezjak Zrim and Meira Hot to establish annual state celebrations for August 17th (Prekmurje Day) and September 15th (Primorska Day). The MPs argue that these dates mark pivotal moments in Slovenian history and represent the resilience of the Slovenian people, national identity, and cultural heritage. They emphasize that these days are not just regional commemorations but significant for all of Slovenia. The MPs suggest that current practices, which typically celebrate these occasions only during special anniversaries, do not adequately reflect their national importance. They recommend that the government organize central state celebrations annually in collaboration with local communities, cultural institutions, and historical organizations.
