Italy and Slovenia established diplomatic relations in 1992. Italy has an embassy in Ljubljana and a consulate in Koper.[1] Slovenia has an embassy in Rome and consulates in Trieste, Florence, and Milan. Both countries are full members of the European Union and NATO.[2]
In addition to the autochthonous minorities, the Istrian Italians in Slovenia and the Slovene Italians in Italy, there are around 3,200 people of Slovenian descent living in Italy as of 2010[update].[3] Approximately 400,000 Italians visit Slovenia every year.
