AllSides Media Bias Rating: Center
Croatia's "pro-Russian" president, Zoran Milanović, overwhelmingly won reelection for another five-year term on Sunday.
Milanović, 58, defeated a candidate from the ruling conservative party in a runoff vote, official results showed.
Why It Matters
Milanović is a critic of the European Union and NATO, and has also spoken out against Western military support for Ukraine in its war with Russia.
Prime Minister Andrej Plenković has labeled Milanović "pro-Russian" and a threat to Croatia's international standing.
