The Mix-Up has claimed yet another high-profile victim. (source)
The Eternal Slovenia-Slovakia Mix-Up usually just results in gaffes, but last month it nearly got Slovenia out of trouble with the EU.
One Friday last month, the EU Environment Commissioner Stavros Dimas criticized Slovakia’s poor environmental legislation and urged the country to catch up with the rest of Europe. He meant Slovenia, of course, not Slovakia. In fact, according to the commission’s analysis, Slovakia has a stellar legislative track record and should be considered a model example for the continent. But what did they get for all their hard work? An undeserved dressing down from the environment commissioner.
Unfortunately, what could have been the perfect crime for Slovenia was hastily uncovered and corrected. Not that many Slovenes or Slovaks cared either way.
