A member of the Truth Party who owes a debt to the workers and the state, even in the eyes of the CCP.

The Slovenian parliamentary member Boris Mijič is under investigation by Slovenia's Anti-Corruption Commission (KPK) regarding his role in several companies, particularly concerning conflicts of interest. Mijič's company, Progros, owes tens of thousands of euros to former employees and the state. Recently, Mijič posted job advertisements seeking 25 workers for painting, facade work, and other construction jobs through the Employment Agency of the Republic of Slovenia. These ads promised high wages and listed Mijič as the contact person. However, the ads were later removed from the agency’s website. Mijič confirmed to the portal Necenzurirano that he was behind these advertisements, which were placed for his wife’s company, Storitve in inženiring, Suzana Mijič s.p., which has only one employee but sought 25 workers. His wife’s company acted as a subcontractor on the upgrade of Ljubljana railway station, a project managed by the Minister of Infrastructure and Energy, Jure Vrtovec. Additionally, Mijič worked as a project assistant on this project through his wife’s company, hired by Kolektor Koling. As part of an agreement, Kolektor Koling will pay Progros for unaccounted work at the董

We called for a high-paying job, and Congressman Mijic answered.

The article reports on a controversy involving Slovenian parliamentarian Boris Mijič, whose company Progros has allegedly欠款 over ten thousand euros to employees and the state. Despite these financial issues, Mijič's wife has recently posted three job advertisements seeking up to 25 workers for construction-related tasks, offering gross wages of around 3,500 euros per month—significantly higher than the national average. When contacted by journalists, Mijič claimed he was not listed as the contact person in the job postings and denied involvement in running his wife’s business, which is now operating independently in the construction sector. The article highlights discrepancies between Mijič’s public statements and the publicly available information, including the fact that he was indeed listed as the contact person in all three job ads.

Bias read (Progressive): The article frames Mijič’s actions in a manner that suggests hypocrisy or inconsistency, particularly regarding his alleged failure to pay employees while simultaneously offering high wages to new hires. It emphasizes the discrepancy between his public denial and the evidence presented (such as the

Why these scores (Factual 95 · Objective 70): High factual accuracy based on primary source document and cross-source consensus. However, the article has a clear bias against Mijič, using emotionally charged language like 'exploited workers' and implying guilt without sufficient evidence.

Another basket for Janša: Stevanović's Resni.ca also rejected the partnership

The article discusses Zoran Stevanović's statement regarding Resni.ca's decision not to sign the Partnership for Development agreement offered by Prime Minister Janez Janša. Stevanović explained that after careful consideration at all levels of their party, they decided not to sign the agreement because they saw no meaningful purpose in it. He emphasized that the party would support initiatives beneficial to Slovenia and reject those not aligned with their program. Despite being satisfied with the offer, they concluded there was no specific reason to sign the agreement, which they viewed as purely formal with no substantive content. Stevanović noted that their decision does not require justification to any other party.

Bias read (Center): The article presents a neutral account of Resni.ca's decision-making process and reasoning behind rejecting the partnership agreement.

For Janša and others, a long hot summer

The article discusses an episode of the show 'Ura resnice' where commentator Bernard Nežmah and Petra Gregorčič analyze recent political developments in Slovenia. They note that the opposition has intensified criticism against the Resni.ca party, particularly after revelations about unpaid debts to workers. Nežmah warns that this anti-establishment rhetoric pushes the party closer to the right and makes it part of the ruling coalition. He highlights the growing influence of State Assembly Speaker Zoran Stevanović, who, despite having only five deputies, is becoming a significant political figure. The segment also examines a public opinion poll by Mediana showing 44% of people oppose the government post-election, which Gregorčič attributes to reflecting the parliamentary composition. The discussion includes criticism of the Democratic Party for low support due to failed promises, including the SKOK initiative. The show airs every Tuesday and Friday at 8 PM and can be streamed on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts.

Bias read (Center): While the article covers politically charged topics such as opposition tactics, party dynamics, and public opinion, it presents multiple perspectives without overtly favoring any side.

Mijić was frightened, and after the article was published, he withdrew the advertisements for new employees.

Following an article published by Necenzurirano.si, MP Boris Mijič from the Resni.ca party removed job advertisements he had placed for new employees. The ads promised high salaries for construction-related jobs, significantly above the national average. Mijič's company, Progros, has been in financial trouble and owes money to former employees and the state. The ads were initially attributed to a contact person named Boris, but after the article was published, Mijič clarified that his wife had posted them. His wife transitioned from a cosmetics business to construction during the previous year. The Employment Agency confirmed that they did not know who posted the ads until after the article was published. They noted that the form used for posting the ads lacked full names of the contacts, which led to confusion. Additionally, the Labor Inspectorate previously banned Progros from hiring foreign workers due to unpaid wages and contributions. Despite these issues, Mijič managed to post the ads through his wife, indicating possible legal loopholes or avoidance strategies.

Bias read (Progressive): The article highlights potential misconduct by a politician, focusing on his company's financial troubles, unpaid wages, and legal issues. It frames the situation critically towards Mijič, emphasizing his avoidance of responsibilities and the implications of his actions. The tone suggests scrutiny,

Uncensored.si - There's money coming in for Congressman Mijic, but there won't be for the overworked workers

The article discusses financial issues involving MP Boris Mijič, director of the failing company Progros, which owes tens of thousands of euros to former employees and the state. It reports that Mijič has secured an agreement with companies Kolektor Koling and CGP to pay approximately €32,000 for unpaid work related to the construction of the Dobrunje prison project. This amount is nearly equal to the tax debt his company owes to the Financial Administration (Furs). However, this payment does not address the debts owed to former workers. The article notes that Mijič was working on a railway station project in Ljubljana while serving as an MP, which is against regulations, and he continued working through his spouse’s self-employed business. The article highlights the discrepancy between Mijič receiving funds and the lack of resolution for his company's outstanding obligations to employees.

Bias read (Progressive): The article frames the situation critically toward Mijič, highlighting his financial mismanagement, potential conflicts of interest, and failure to resolve debts to former employees. The tone emphasizes accountability and criticism of Mijič's actions, suggesting a left-leaning perspective focused on

Opinions of 26 June 2026 Mijič worker left without income due to fraudulent dismissal before death

The article discusses the ongoing legal and financial struggles faced by former employees of Progros, a company owned by Slovenian politician Boris Mijič of the Resni.ca party. These workers have been left without wages and social contributions for over a year, with some having passed away before receiving any compensation. One such case involves Mark, who died of cancer after being laid off without proper benefits. The Delavska svetovalnica (Labour Advisory Office), which has been assisting these workers, claims that Progros owes them between €2,000 and €4,000 per employee, though exact figures remain unclear due to incomplete documentation. Zoran Stevanović, Mijič’s party leader, initially offered to pay the debts personally but limited this to three employees. The article highlights the workers' efforts to recover their money and hold the company accountable, while noting that Mijič has not publicly responded to the allegations.

Bias read (Progressive): The article frames the situation as a political issue by emphasizing the ownership of Progros by Boris Mijič, a member of the Resni.ca party, and highlights the failure of a political figure's affiliated company to meet its obligations to workers.

First on leave, then on sick leave, but still reachable on the Progress phone.

The article discusses ongoing controversies surrounding Boris Mijič, a Slovenian parliament member and former director of Progros. After taking a vacation and then being hospitalized, Mijič has not responded to calls regarding new hires at Progros, which has led to the job postings being removed. The article highlights concerns over potential conflicts of interest, as Mijič continues to engage in activities that may be incompatible with his parliamentary duties. The Commission for Prevention of Corruption (KPK) is investigating whether Mijič’s roles in multiple companies conflict with his position, noting that he was informed of the need to cease such activities but did not comply. Additionally, there are unresolved financial issues involving Progros, including blocked accounts and pending payments for workers, with some claims pointing to former president Zoran Stevanović. While the party remains silent on the matter, worker representatives express frustration over alleged obstruction and suggest legal action.

The deadline for joining the partnership expired on June 26, and the party's president, Zoran Stevanović, stated that they do not see a particular purpose in signing the agreement. He explained that the party will remain loyal to their promises to voters, supporting proposals they believe are beneficial for Slovenia and opposing those that do not align with their program or national interest. While satisfied with the 'outstretched hand' of the coalition, they view the agreement as purely formal with no substantive content. Stevanović emphasized that the party does not need to justify their decision to other parties and acknowledged that opinions within Resni.ca regarding joining the partnership were divided.

Amel, Husein and Sulja will be paid from Stevanovic's pocket

The article discusses a situation involving Stevanović, who has decided to cover the unpaid wages of three former employees from his own savings after taking over a company previously managed by Boris Mijić. According to Stevanović, these workers were left without pay, and he views this action as an act of fairness rather than manipulation. He claims that the media and even his own PR team have criticized him for this decision but remains committed to his principles regardless of external pressures. Mijić is accused of withholding salaries, forging employee signatures on resignation forms, and failing to report payments to the Pension and Disability Insurance Fund (Zpiz) and the Financial Administration of the Republic of Slovenia (Furs). Stevanović also mentioned that Mijić is under investigation by the Anti-Corruption Commission (KPK), and if Mijić fails to meet obligations or is found guilty of any charges, he will lose his position as a representative.

Stevanović: Partnership agreement for a successful Slovenia will not be signed #video

The leader of the Resni.ca party, Zoran Stevanović, announced that his party would not sign the Partnership Agreement for a Successful Slovenia, which was proposed by Prime Minister Janez Janša to parliamentary parties and members of national minorities after the formation of the government. Stevanović stated that the agreement lacks substantive content and is purely formal, and therefore they would not enter into any agreement with the coalition. The agreement would require the coalition to submit laws for approval at least ten days before their consideration by the government. Several opposition groups, including the Left, Vesna, and Movement Freedom, have rejected the partnership due to doubts about its sincerity, particularly regarding some actions taken by the coalition at the start of their mandate. Additionally, Stevanović criticized Janša's plans to move Slovenia's embassy to Jerusalem and freeze recognition of Palestine, calling them contrary to international law.

Bias read (Center): The article presents both the decision of the Resni.ca party not to sign the agreement and the reasons provided by Stevanović, while also mentioning the opposition's skepticism towards the agreement and Stevanović's criticism of Janša's foreign policy proposals.
