Opponent of military aid to Ukraine wins Croatian presidential election

Zoran Milanovic, an opponent of military aid to Ukraine, has won the second round of the Croatian presidential election.

According to the counting of ballots, almost 75% of electors voted for the incumbent President, while his opponent, a representative of the ruling Croatian Democratic Commonwealth party, received about 25%. By the way, Milanovic has always been against conflict with Russia, for which he was labeled an agent of the Kremlin.

In Croatia, however, the President does not have many powers, but formally the head of state can block laws and is also the supreme commander-in-chief. Milanovic has consistently opposed the military aid to Ukraine and NATO expansion.
