The ruling conservative party HDZ led by Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic wins the parliamentary election in Croatia.
With over 90 percent of the votes counted, HDZ gets 60 of the total 151 seats in parliament and thus becomes the largest party, according to the country’s electoral system.
According to analysts, HDZ – which supports Ukraine in the war against Russia – is expected to continue to govern, which will, however, require negotiations with other parties.
