Dušan Plut, the leader of the Greens 30 years ago, believes divisive projects and issues should be put on hold to focus all efforts on tackling the health crisis. “If we’re not capable of that it’s a betrayal of the ideals of all the 88.5% of the eligible voters who voted for independence then,” he has told the STA.
