President decorates members of 1991 special operations unit

Borovnica, 28 June - President Borut Pahor decorated in Borovnica on Tuesday members of a special operations unit that confiscated a large quantity of weapons from a Yugoslav Army armoury during the 1991 independence war. The decision, involving army officer Tone Krkovič, has been raising some eyebrows due to fears it will add fuel to the independence war disputes.
