In the next four years, Bosilegrad will be managed by Vladimir Zaharijev, who has been the president of that municipality since 2001, so he will probably be in that position for a total of at least 27 years.

Vladimir Zaharijev was re-elected as the president of Bosilegrad municipality. This is his seventh term in a row, and this time he was first on the list "Aleksandar Vučić - Bosilegrad sutra"

Stefan Stojkov has been appointed as the deputy president of Bosilegrad Municipality, while Slavco Vladimirov will be the president of the Assembly, and Ivan Jordanov will be the deputy president of the local parliament.

The Municipal Council will include Stanislava Petrakijeva, Olgica Zaharijev, Daniel Zarev, Ljiljana Anakiev and Danijel Milanov.

In addition to the ruling coalition, the Bosilegrad Assembly also includes two councilors from the "Mozemo i mi" list.

Like the mandate of Zaharijev, the mandates of councilors will last for the next four years.

Vladimir Zaharijev was born in 1968 in Bosilegrad. He graduated from the Faculty of Natural Sciences, where he received the title of expert in the field of natural and technical sciences. He started his political career in the Democratic Party of Serbia (DSS).

The list "Aleksandar Vučić - Bosilegrad Sutra" won 96,77 percent of the votes in the local elections on June 2, while the list "Možemo i mi" got 3,23 percent.

A player from the people 

It's Zachary's finished high school in Bosilegrad and then entered the Faculty of Natural Sciences, where he completed his degree and received the title "Expert in the field of natural and technical sciences".

He started his political career in the DSS, where he has remained until today.

In the 2008 elections, he was on the list for deputies, but as he declared at the time, "it's better in Bosilegrad than in the Assembly."

He is considered one of the most controversial figures on the political scene in Pčinjsko district, and video clips of his "playing" skills have been a real hit on YouTube for years.

Although many criticize him for "improper" behavior, he is considered the president of the municipality in whom the citizens have confidence.

In November 2014, he was elected unanimously for the president of the National Council of Bulgarians in Serbia.

In the elections of April 2016, he appeared as the leader of the list of the Bulgarian national minority "To smo mi - natural movement" and won 67,7 percent of the votes.
