Ljubljana, November 16 (TASR) - Slovak Interior Minister Daniel Lipsic and Slovenian Labour and Social Affairs Minister Ivan Svetlik on Tuesday signed an agreement on war graves at the Slovak Embassy in Ljubljana.
The aim of the agreement between the Slovak and Slovenian Governments is to ensure that war graves on the territory of both countries are properly maintained.
The document was signed soon after the unveiling of a monument to Slovak soldiers serving in the Austro-Hungarian army in the First World War who were killed on the Soce front (Slovenia) between 1915-17. The monument was unveiled by Lipsic and Slovak Defence Minister Lubomir Galko in Loce (Slovenia) on Monday.
