LJUBLJANA, Slovenia - Slovenia's prime minister and the U.S. ambassador are denying a WikiLeaks cable suggesting he sought a meeting with President Barack Obama in return for accepting a Guantanamo inmate.
Borut Pahor said Wednesday he would be "ashamed" to make such a deal.
Mussomeli, said there was "no linkage, no deal and no quid pro quo" negotiated for Slovenia's potential assistance regarding Guantanamo.According to the cable, U.S. ambassador Joseph A. Mussomeli's predecessor reported that Pahor "unambiguously" linked the Guantanamo issue with meeting Obama.
Pahor also reportedly promised that a U.S. firm would build a potential new reactor at Slovenia's nuclear plant. He says he merely called on potential investors.
