Who is Mladen Ivanić?

Mladen Ivanić is a Bosnian Serb politician. From 2001 to 2003, Ivanić was Prime Minister of the Republika Srpska, and his leadership is described by many as rather successful. He also served as the sixth foreign minister of Bosnia and Herzegovina since it became independence in 1992, succeeding Zlatko Lagumdžija on the post, and as such was a member of the Council of Ministers of Bosnia and Herzegovina. In turn, he was succeeded on the post in 2007 by Sven Alkalaj.

He is a member of the center-right Party of Democratic Progress, its president and its founding member since 1999. Born in 1958 in Sanski Most, Ivanić has been a resident of Banja Luka since 1971, where he got his university diploma in economics. He then got a doctor's degree in Belgrade; the thesis was titled Contemporary Marxist political economy in the West. His political career begins in 1988, when he became a member of the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

In 2008, he was convicted of "Lack of Commitment in Office", but, upon appeal, he was cleared of all charges.
