Iliana Lotova is the first woman elected president in the history of Bulgaria. At the age of 62, she managed to win the presidential race in the runoff held on November 1, securing 57.58% of the vote, compared to 39.47% for her rival, Andrey Gyurov.

Her victory marks a significant milestone for women's representation in the highest institutions of the Bulgarian state. However, Iotova is not a new name in the country's politics. She took over the presidency in January of this year, following the resignation of President Rumen Radev, under whom she had served as vice president for a decade.

Born on October 24, 1964 in Sofia, Iotova began her career in journalism. After studying Bulgarian philology at Sofia University, she worked at Bulgarian National Television, where she held several positions, including reporter, editor, and director of the Information Department.

She entered politics in 1997, when she became head of the press service of the Bulgarian Socialist Party. In 2005, she was elected a member of the Bulgarian Parliament, and two years later she began her career in the European Parliament, where she served for three terms, until 2017.

During her European engagement, Iotova focused particularly on issues of immigration, security, the fight against terrorism, and civil rights.

One of the most controversial aspects of her political profile is her stance on Russia and the war in Ukraine. Iotova has supported a diplomatic solution to the conflict through negotiations between Moscow and Kiev, and has expressed positions in favor of improving relations with Russia.

She has been politically close to former President Rumen Radev, who also supported negotiations with Moscow. Their positions have fueled debate in Bulgaria, a member of NATO and the European Union.

With the victory in the November 1 elections, Iotova secures her presidential mandate through the direct vote of citizens, becoming the first woman to be elected to this position in the country's history.
