Micheline Calmy-Rey vs Milo Djukanovic

Calmy-Rey was elected to the Federal Council, heading the Federal Department of Foreign Affairs from 2003 to 2011. She advocated for Swiss neutrality while engaging with the EU and UN, and promoted human rights and peacebuilding.

Calmy-Rey was elected President of the Swiss Confederation for the year 2007, becoming the first woman to hold the office. She focused on foreign policy, including Switzerland's relations with the European Union and international organizations.

Calmy-Rey supported the 'Swissness' initiative, which aimed to protect Swiss cultural identity and products in the context of globalization. The initiative led to stricter regulations on the use of Swiss symbols and labels.

Calmy-Rey called for reforms of the United Nations Security Council, arguing for a more representative and effective body. She emphasized the need for greater inclusion of small states and developing countries.

Calmy-Rey was re-elected as President of the Swiss Confederation for 2011, a rare second term. She continued her work on foreign policy and social issues, including promoting gender equality and sustainable development.

Djukanovic became Prime Minister of Montenegro at age 29, the youngest in Europe. He initially supported Slobodan Milosevic but later shifted to a pro-Western stance.

Djukanovic was elected President of Montenegro, serving until 2002. He pursued a policy of distancing from Serbia and moving toward EU integration.

Djukanovic, as Prime Minister, led the campaign for Montenegro's independence from Serbia. The referendum resulted in a narrow victory for independence, ending the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro.

Djukanovic's Democratic Party of Socialists lost the parliamentary elections to a coalition of opposition parties, ending his party's 30-year rule. He remained president but with reduced power.
