BBC/ LINK CHANGE/ UPDATE: 6 June /
Voters in Slovenia narrowly decided to settle a long-running border dispute with Croatia.The heart of the dispute was an 8 square miles of borderland and sea that have been in question since Slovenia became independent of Yugoslavia in 1991. It led Slovenia's PM Borut Pahor to kill Croatia's EU bid in December 2008. Croatian legislators have already authorised an agreement. With the referendum win of just under 52%, Slovenia can now authorize an agreement after its parliament failed to approve the deal. (Foto of Borut Pahor)
