Non tornerà al Consiglio di Stato.

Boris Mijič and Tea Košir are no longer members of parliament. Their mandates ended today following their resignations. The National Assembly was informed during its morning session of Mijič's resignation from the party Resni.ca, which he submitted on Monday. The assembly also learned of Košir's resignation from her position as head of the health ministry’s secretariat, which automatically led to the end of her parliamentary mandate. Immediately after this, the assembly was informed of Košir's resignation as a member of parliament, initiating the process for Elena Zavladav Ušaj to be appointed as the new MP. The executive committee of Resni.ca had previously decided at the end of last week to call for Mijič's resignation, exclude him from the party, and prevent his appointment to the delegation of the European Parliament. Mijič himself submitted his resignation on Monday. Mijič is eligible to request a replacement allowance if he applies for it. Any MP who has held office for at least six months can apply for such an allowance. According to data published on the website of the State Election Commission (SEC), Slavko Moharič could potentially replace Mijič in parliament. However, Moharič has announced his candidacy for mayor of Trnovska Vas. Tea Košir is no longer an MP. During the session, the assembly was also informed of her resignation from the position of head of the health ministry’s secretariat. As stated by the deputy speaker of the National Assembly, her tenure in that role ended on October 15, meaning her parliamentary mandate resumed today. Members of Freedom and Left warned that Košir had already submitted her resignation from her parliamentary position before becoming an MP, specifically on October 13. They attempted to delay the decision regarding the end of her mandate and the re-election of Elena Zavladav Ušaj until next week, but were unsuccessful. Košir, who initially resigned as head of the secretariat and planned to return to parliament as an independent MP while leaving the Democrats party, later renounced her parliamentary mandate. Košir will likely not claim her right to a replacement allowance upon the end of her mandate. She is set to work at the Infrastructure Directorate. In previous governments, there have been several resignations among MPs. One of the most notable was boxer Dejan Zavec, who resigned alongside Martin Marzidovšek. The resignation of SD MP Jani Prednik also made headlines. The reason for his resignation was serious accusations and criminal charges filed against him by his former partner at the court in Slovenj Gradec on September 10, 2025. Prednik denied the allegations but chose to resign with the explanation that politics should not become a prisoner of personal stories and media conflicts. As an MP of Freedom, Minister of Health Danijel Bešič Loredan also resigned. Tea Košir has decided not to return to parliament. After her resignation from the position of head of the health ministry’s secretariat, the government has already dismissed her from that role. Ljubljana - Radovljičanka Tea Košir, who announced late Sunday night that she would leave the Democrats party and serve as an independent MP after being relieved of her duties as head of the health ministry’s secretariat, has decided not to return to parliament. “Do I need to drink from the cup of parliament? I don’t need conflicts to be heard. I just need freedom to think with my own mind,” she wrote on Facebook. According to reports by the media, she has already signed and submitted her decision to the National Assembly. Košir was elected to the National Assembly in the spring elections in the Radovljica 2 electoral district on the Democrats' list. Later, on June 10, she was appointed as head of the health ministry’s secretariat, and in the National Assembly, she was replaced by Elena Zavadlav Ušaj, who is currently also the leader of the Democrats' parliamentary group. At the end of September, Košir announced her resignation from the position of head of the secretariat, although she did not disclose the reasons. The government became aware of Košir’s resignation from the position of head of the secretariat during a written session on Wednesday. Her tenure in that role ended on Thursday, October 15. Košir is expected to start a new job at the Infrastructure Directorate, where for POP TV explained that a temporary position with full-time employment in the finance and planning sector is available for the purpose of replacing absent public officials. Tea Košir spoke about what led her to make this decision after she renounced her parliamentary seat. Košir was elected to the National Assembly in the current parliamentary elections for the Democrats' list of Anže Logar. Later, she was appointed as head of the secretariat, and her parliamentary seat was taken over by Elena Zavadlav Ušaj. Košir resigned from the position of head of the secretariat at the end of September, followed by her resignation from the Democrats. On Sunday evening, she announced that she would operate as an independent MP, but then on Monday, another change occurred, as she decided to resign as an MP. She is expected to find work at the Infrastructure Directorate of the Republic of Slovenia. On Facebook, Tea Košir spoke about her decision to submit the Tarča. "They told me that there are two services: to be a politician or to be what I am, a businesswoman. And indeed, it is a different way of thinking, compromises, and I understand them. Now that I have entered this world, I understand them, but I cannot perform this work because I have my values," she said. She also spoke about threats she received. "I heard warnings about everything that could happen, that someone could harm my business, that I should be careful about who drives behind me on the highway. I also heard crude comparisons with the fates of other people." "I won't fight for a chair and won't create conflict because of a function. A function is never my goal. I think my contribution can be much greater elsewhere and not in the parliamentary chamber." She did not want to comment on what happened between Sunday and Monday that changed her decision. "I wanted to tell people in parliament that there are other ways. As I've already told you, six votes of the party are few, but ideals must exist. Slovenia is a small country, so everyone knows each other, so in the end, I chose this peace and accepted the position at the Ministry of Infrastructure. I'm grateful that I can contribute more to my area and give voters some satisfaction, meaning I work in the direction for which I was elected," she said. Regarding whether it was a kind of agreement that she would get a job at the ministry in exchange for resigning as an MP. "Of course. It will be easier for them to work. My conscience tells me simply to let things be as they are. People who voted for the Democrats and a handful of people who voted for me, here it was a compromise, that I can get something for myself and the party gets an empowered parliamentary representative and continues forward." Who offered her the new job, she didn't say. The threats she received are also linked to land in Bled that she bought with her husband in the summer. Someone who knew about the purchase of a plot worth €1.64 million warned her that by publishing certain articles in specific media, doubts could be raised about the legality of the funds used for this purchase. She explained that entrepreneurs occasionally make purchases because they invest ahead. "We are also entrepreneurs and fear for our reputation, especially if we work honestly," she said and added that her work is transparent and responsible. Anže Logar: She decided based on her own conscience Saša Despot President of the Democrats, Anže Logar does not believe that the story behind this is as presented. "I talked to Ms. Košir twice. First shortly after her announced resignation, where we sat for about an hour and a half and went through all possibilities that arise from this decision, what each decision means. Second, I think it was last week, when we discussed how she would proceed with regard to the upcoming party congress, where I see her or where she sees herself. Then she informed me on Friday that she would leave the party. I immediately called her and we agreed that we would meet again this week, for this meeting."
