Croatia elects leftist Zoran Milanović to be next president
Croatia’s leftist former prime minister Zoran Milanović, who has pledged to make his nation a more tolerant place and turn the page on its wartime past, will be his country’s next president after defeating the incumbent conservative in a run-off vote.
Milanović took 52.7% of the vote in Sunday’s run-off, while president Kolinda Grabar-Kitarović, who had tried to unite a fractured right-wing, garnered 47.3%, according to results based on a vote count from nearly all polling stations released by the electoral commission.
Well this is a welcome event. It is only Croatia but all the same........................
