Zoran Milanović has been re-elected as Croatia’s president, securing a significant victory in the country’s presidential election. Preliminary results, with 98.65% of polling stations counted, showed Milanović, representing the Social Democratic Party, receiving 74.58% of the vote, while his opponent, Dragan Primorac, gained 25.42%.
The voter turnout stood at 44.15%, according to the state election commission. Expressing gratitude to his supporters, Milanović said, "This is a meaningful day for me, and I view this as a recognition of my work and the trust people have placed in me."
Reflecting on his first term, Milanović commented after casting his vote in Zagreb, "I have approached my responsibilities with dedication over the past five years, and I hope that has been clear to the people."
