Ms. President
A gentle and progressive-minded woman as president in a country shaped by a post-socialist legacy and ruled for ages exclusively by men – what challenges await her? Slovakia’s first female president, Zuzana Čaputová, is on the mission to change the rudeness of the world with her decency and kindness.
