US General Philip Mark Breedlove, NATO'S supreme commander for Europe, will visit Slovenia upon the invitation of Chief of the Slovenian General Staff, Major General Dobran Božič on Tuesday. He will also meet outgoing Defence Minister Roman Jakič during the official visit.
Breedlove and Božič will mostly discuss NATO's present challenges and the contribution of the Slovenian Armed Forces to the alliance, the Defence Ministry said.
Also planned are meetings with Jakič as well as President Borut Pahor as the supreme commander of the Slovenian army.
Breedlove took over NATO's forces in Europe on 13 May last year. He began his military career in 1977 as a pilot while he later served in many commanding posts around the world.
