Rinkevics elected as Latvia first gay president
Latvia's foreign minister Edgars Rinkevics was elected as the Baltic country's new president on Wednesday, the first openly gay person to hold the office.
Latvia's top diplomat since 2011, the 49-year-old will serve as head of state of the EU and NATO member for the next four years after incumbent Egils Levits decided not to run for a second term.
"I will do everything for our country to prosper and be secure," Rinkevics said after the vote in parliament.
He came out as gay in 2014, the first prominent political figure in the country to do so.
