Croatian president re-elected in landslide victory

Voters in Croatia have re-elected Zoran Milanovic to a second term, after he won almost three-quarters of votes cast in the country's presidential election.

It was a dismal result for his opponent Dragan Primorac, who had the backing of the governing centre-right Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ) party.

Primorac picked up 25 percent of the vote – the worst-ever result for Croatia's most powerful political force.

 Milanovic has been a frequent critic of the governing party on issues including corruption, inflation and healthcare.

While he condemned Russia's invasion of Ukraine, he has also frequently criticised the West's military support for Kyiv.
