Mr Crvenkovski won the presidential elections by a clear margin |
Macedonian President-elect Branko Crvenkovski is only 41, but he is one of Macedonia's most experienced politicians.
He was first elected Prime Minister of newly-independent Macedonia in 1992.

Aged 29, he became Europe's youngest head of government at the time.
Mr Crvenkovski held the premiership until his Social Democratic Union was defeated in the parliamentary elections of 1998.
But he and his party bounced back to office in 2002 - and he is now switching the powerful post of prime minister for the more ceremonial position of president.
However, few observers believe that Mr Crvenkovski will withdraw entirely from day-to-day politics.
Instead, the expectation is that he will continue to have a very powerful influence over government - in effect, he will become a backseat driver.
