Israeli Spy Firm's Alleged Visit to Slovenia Raises Tensions on Eve of Vote
Slovenian officials confirmed Black Cube's December visit amid allegations linking it to election influence and a disputed meeting with opposition leader Janez Jansa.
- On Tuesday, Slovenia's prime minister accused 'foreign services' of meddling after reports linked figures associated with Black Cube to a meeting with opposition leader Janez Jansa in Ljubljana.
- Founded in 2011, Israeli private intelligence firm Black Cube says it was created by veterans of elite units and faced a 2017 controversy involving Harvey Weinstein and a 2023 LinkedIn allegation.
- Arrivals were confirmed by Slovenia's Intelligence and Security Agency in December, but it could not verify any meeting with Jansa, who denies meeting Black Cube; the firm did not comment.
- Borut Mekina said 'It's important for the politics and the people that this was revealed before the election,' during a Monday debate, highlighting timing concerns.
- If the SDS party wins Sunday's vote, it could shift Slovenia's Middle East policy away from Golob's recognition of a Palestinian state and last year's import ban, analysts say.
