Vjosa Osmani-Sadriu is post-war Kosovo’s seventh President and its second female one.
Lawmakers in Kosovo elected and swore in a new President on Sunday for a five-year term, the Balkan nation’s second female leader in the post-war period. The 120-seat parliament, which convened in an extraordinary session for two days, gave 71 votes for Vjosa Osmani-Sadriu, the former parliament speaker, in the third round of voting, while 11 votes were invalid. Two opposition parties and the ethnic Serb minority party boycotted the voting.More Related News
