Lotay Tshering vs Miguel Mariano Gomez

Lotay Tshering was elected to the National Assembly of Bhutan as a candidate of the Druk Nyamrup Tshogpa (DNT). He was a practicing surgeon before entering politics.

Lotay Tshering led the Druk Nyamrup Tshogpa to victory in the 2018 National Assembly elections and became Prime Minister. He continued his medical practice on weekends, earning the nickname 'surgeon PM'.

Lotay Tshering continued to work as a surgeon at the Jigme Dorji Wangchuck National Referral Hospital on weekends while serving as Prime Minister. This unusual practice was widely reported and seen as a symbol of his commitment to public service.

Lotay Tshering's Druk Nyamrup Tshogpa lost the 2023-2024 National Assembly elections to the People's Democratic Party. He stepped down as Prime Minister, marking a peaceful transfer of power.

Miguel Mariano Gomez was elected president of Cuba as a coalition candidate. His election was seen as a victory for democratic reform and a break from the corruption of previous administrations.

Gomez clashed with army chief Fulgencio Batista over control of the military and government policies. Batista opposed Gomez's efforts to reduce military influence in politics, leading to a power struggle.

Gomez was impeached and removed from office by the Cuban Congress, controlled by Batista's allies. The impeachment was widely seen as a political maneuver to eliminate opposition to Batista's growing power.

After his removal, Gomez went into exile in the United States. He died in 1950, having never returned to Cuba. His removal marked a turning point in Cuban politics, leading to Batista's dictatorship.
