LJUBLJANA (Reuters) - Prime Minister Janez Jansa hopes his promises to cut Slovenia's reliance on Russian gas imports and his firm pro-Ukraine stance in the war will help propel his ruling centre-right party to victory in Sunday's parliamentary election.
But critics accuse Jansa, a populist who is seeking a fourth stint as premier, of undermining democratic standards in Slovenia, an ex-Yugoslav republic of some two million people that is a member of NATO and the European Union.
