So proud that Randy Bresnik, an 🇺🇸 astronaut of 🇸🇮 Slovenian ancestry, has been picked to command the 🧑🚀 four-member crew of Artemis III.
Bresnik, whose ancestry traces back to the Upper Savinja Valley, has visited 🇸🇮 many times 👏🏻
Introducing Artemis III.
Four astronauts. Three launches. Two dockings. One splashdown.
In 2027, the Artemis III mission will practice docking the Orion spacecraft with two lunar landers in low Earth orbit — the capability we need to return humanity to the Moon’s surface.
Janja Garnbret is the only woman in the 🌍 who has done it!
The hardest route of her life so far 💚 She joined a special club of just 5️⃣ climbers who managed to 🧗♂️ it!
Bibliographie, 9b+, it is the new milestone for women climbing 💚

Minister za zunanje in evropske zadeve @TKajzer je s srečanjem z nekdanjo MZEZ @tfajon zaključil primopredajo poslov vodenja @MZEZ_RS 🇸🇮.
"Zunanja politika, še posebej pri manjših državah, mora temeljiti na kontinuiteti in imeti vedno pred očmi nacionalne interese, ki so naša prednostna naloga, ter ustvarjanje konkretnih koristi za naše državljane in 🇸🇮gospodarstvo."
Minister Kajzer se je nekdanji MZEZ Fajon zahvalil za vse, kar je bilo v preteklem mandatu narejeno dobrega, kljub nekaterim različnim pogledom, in ji zaželel veliko uspehov na njeni nadaljnji poklicni in osebni poti.

Anže Kopitar has officially retired from the @NHL after 1,521 regular-season games played.
From Jesenice, Slovenia, Anže was selected by the @LAKings 11th overall in the 2005 NHL Entry Draft and would make his NHL debut the following season.
When Anže made his NHL debut on October 6, 2006, he became the first Slovenian-born player to ever play in the NHL, topping it off with two goals in his first game.
After a 76-point campaign in the 2011-12 regular season, Anže co-led the 2012 Stanley Cup Playoffs in scoring, along with teammate Dustin Brown, as the Kings captured the club’s first Stanley Cup. Two seasons later, the Kings were kings once again, winning the 2014 Stanley Cup, with Anže once again leading the playoffs in scoring.
With a sterling reputation as one of the NHL’s elite two-way forwards, Anže won the Frank J. Selke Trophy as the league’s top defensive forward at the 2015-16 NHL awards, and took home the Lady Byng Memorial Trophy for his combination of sportsmanship and high quality of play that same night.
Anže would become familiar with these two awards, winning the Frank J. Selke Trophy once more in 2017-18, and the Lady Byng Memorial Trophy on two more occasions in 2022-23 and 2024-25. A respected leader on and off the ice, Anže was the recipient of the 2021-22 Mark Messier Leadership award for his outstanding efforts in the LA Kings community.
Anže was named the Kings’ captain ahead of the 2015-16 season and proudly wore the “C” for his final 10 seasons.
Ahead of his 20th season, Anže announced that the 2025-26 season would be his last. A highly respected veteran across the league, Anže was met with special handshake ceremonies from his peers during his final stretch of regular-season contests.
Anže retires atop the list of numerous franchise records for the Kings, including games-played (1,521), assists (864), and points (1,316).
Internationally, Anže proudly represented Slovenia at all levels, highlighted by his nation’s first-ever Olympic appearance in the 2014 Winter Olympic Games in Sochi.
Congratulations on your spectacular career, Anže, and welcome to the NHL Alumni Association!

At the opening of the 9th Latin America and Caribbean Days 🌎 at @MZEZ_RS, State Secretary @melita_gabric highlighted shared commitment to multilateralism and sustainable development.
"Through dialogue we are working together not only to strengthen political cooperation, but also expand trade and investment, advance our shared priorities such as the digital transformation, green transition and sustainable development."
MZEZ @tfajon o opolnomočenju žensk v javnem življenju, gospodarstvu & voditeljstvu:
Za resničen napredek pri enakosti spolov moramo spremeniti način razmišljanja ter biti vzor mladim, ki bodo stopali po naših stopinjah.
Hvala @CanadaHungary & Združenju Ona Ve za organizacijo dogodka. 💪👩💼
