My Take
The detail that fascinates me is the accordion. Here is a Slovenian law professor who rose to Prime Minister, and the record quietly notes he is also an accordionist. I find that combination irresistibly human. The disciplined jurist and the folk musician living in the same person suggests someone who never let the technocratic role flatten him out. Leading a national government as an academic outsider is hard, often thankless work, and I suspect the music was both refuge and tell. I tend to trust public figures who keep something unguarded and personal alive. Cerar seems to have done exactly that.
