Party Trust (Slovene : Stranka Zaupanje, SZ) is a Slovene political party founded by former DeSUS president and longtime politician Karl Erjavec. The founding congress of the party took place on 27 November 2024, where Erjavec was elected president. Their slogan is For a Safe Future. [1] [2]
Among the prominent members of the new party are former Minister of the Economy Metod Dragonja, former Interior Minister Dragutin Mate, former Minister of Justice Lilijana Kozlovič, former UN ambassador Andrej Logar, former ambassador Milan Jazbec, former Environment Minister Irena Majcen, and former president of the Commission for the Prevention of Corruption Boris Štefanec. According to Erjavec, economist Jože P. Damijan and the first governor of the Bank of Slovenia France Arhar also contributed to drafting the programme. [3]
Erjavec first publicly mentioned the new political project in July 2024, when he announced the formation of the Assembly for the Future, which would later evolve into a centrist political party formed by former politicians. [4] At the end of September 2024, he revealed four pillars on which the new party would operate: pensioners, healthcare and education; security and migration; economy and agriculture; and climate policy.
