Natasa Pirc Musar—Slovenia's former Information Commissioner, journalist, and liberal lawyer who earlier represented former US first lady Melania Trump—was elected as the country's first female president on Sunday. She defeated former Foreign Minister Anze Logar in a runoff election, winning 54% of votes against her rival's 46%. Although both ran as independents, Musar and Logar were backed by the center-left and right-wing blocs, respectively.
