What is trust anyway? Is it a personal belief or value which everyone and the whole

community should strive for? We have incorporated this idea into quite a few of our

interviews and articles. Trust can mean trust in a person, knowledge, cooperation, and

so much more. Trust is also the value we seek in selecting our political candidates,

and it is their responsibility to take our trust and do something constructive with it.

Trust, therefore, is not a small thing. We have to nurture it and to work together to

foster it. This is why we also emphasize that our wealth lies in our diversity. What do

we have in store for you this time? Many things, but in this editorial I would like to

point out a few of them. Just enough to get you to open the magazine and to keep

reading it until the last page.

International relations can be strengthened in several ways, and diplomacy has a big

role in this respect. This time we spoke with Juraj Migaš, Slovak Ambassador to

Slovenia. We asked him what he thinks of the collaboration between Slovenia and

Slovakia, two Central European countries. He told us that he sees Slovenia as a

bridge between the Visegrad Group countries and the Adriatic Sea region. Although

he has been in Slovenia only a few months now, he enjoys living here and is inspired

by the natural beauties and culture.

Global demographic change is a challenge faced by the entire world. Is there trust

between the generations? Is there enough trust that the young people and those with

more experience can live together in harmony? That is what we talked about with

Mateja Kožuh Novak, who says that we are all one big family.

As we already announced in the previous issue of the Sinfo magazine, we have once

again devoted a few words to the Bled Film Festival. Enjoy reading an interview with

versatile artist and world-renowned star, Rade Šerbedžija, who had also been living in

Slovenia for a while.

The Sinfo magazine has always endeavoured to present you an image of Slovenia in

terms of its cultural heritage, but this time, we focused on Slovenian castles,

including those that offer you the opportunity to take your own place among the

nobility.

At the end I wish you to have a nice holiday. Spend part of it discovering Slovenia,

including the things that we have highlighted for you this year.
