In a staggering rebuke of Slovakia’s populist governing party, Zuzana Caputova — a 45-year-old lawyer, environmental activist, activist and political newcomer — was elected Saturday as the nation’s first female president. Progressing on a wave of resentment against toxic corruption but refusing to engage in personal attacks on the opposition, she vowed to return a sense of decency to Slovakia’s often toxic political climate.
“I’m happy not just for the results but also just because it shows its possible to stick to popularism. To tell the truth and raise issues without aggressive” Zuzana Caputova says as she talks to the reporters in Slovakia. “It is clearly the recovery of citizens, and victory for everybody in Slovakia.” “Maybe we thought that justice and fairness in politics were signs of weakness,” she told a crowd of supporters around midnight. “Today, we see that they are actually our strengths. We thought that the barrier between conservative and liberal is unbreakable, but we managed to do it.”
