Slovenia – Referendum

A referendum was held in Slovenia on 6 June. It was held to decide whether a treaty aimed at resolving Slovenia’s dispute with Croatia over their respective maritime border should be approved or not. The treaty would put the matter to an international arbitration tribunal whose decision would be binding.

Slovenia Times reports that the parties split on a left-right basis. The right-wing opposition was opposed to the treaty. The centre-left government was in favour.

In the end, the referendum was approved by 51.48% of those who voted with a 42.28% turnout.
