Ljubljana, September 25 (Xinhua) — The Slovenian government on Thursday declared Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu persona non grata.

"The government unanimously adopted the resolution [regarding B. Netanyahu]," the cabinet said in a statement following its latest meeting. It noted that this decision will serve as "a clear signal to the State of Israel that Slovenia expects strict compliance with the decisions of international courts and the norms of international humanitarian law."

The Slovenian government recalled that in July 2024, the International Court of Justice ruled that a number of Israeli policies violated international humanitarian law.

Today's decision comes two months after Slovenia declared Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrič personae non gratae.

Slovenia, currently a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council, officially recognized the State of Palestine in June 2024 and has repeatedly called for peace in the Gaza Strip. –0–
