The Ministry of Information was established on 31 July 1991,[1][2] and in 2001 it was merged into the Ministry of Culture.
The Ministry of Culture was reorganized several times between 2001 and 2022, and the ministry's official designation frequently included reference to Information, Public Information, and Media. From 2014 to 2022, it was known as the Ministry of Culture and Information.
The Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Information were separated in 2022, at which time the latter ministry also received responsibility for telecommunications. Boris Bratina has served as minister since 16 April 2025.[3]
