Latvia has elected @edgarsrinkevics as President of the Republic.
He’s sharp, hugely respected as a long-serving Foreign Minister, always clear on containing russia, and is a staunch supporter of Ukraine “as long as necessary”.
(He’s also the world’s first openly-gay President)

Rinkēvičs always tried to warn the world about russia’s threat and was actually in Ukraine already demonstrating solidarity when the full scale war was unleashed. He’s clear this is not just Putin’s war, but russia’s war.

As I understand it, San Marino had the first and only other openly-gay Head of State, although they have two Captains Regent rather a President.
So, international journalists, please resist the urge to describe him as just as the first “among former Soviet republics [sic]”.

Based President.
