Branko Crvenkovski ( _mk. Бранко Црвенковски, Audio-IPA|Mk-Branko Crvenkovski.ogg| [ˈbrankɔ tsr̩ˈvɛnkɔfski] ) (born October 12 1962) is the President of the Republic of Macedonia.

Crvenkovski was born in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, then part of SFR Yugoslavia [ [http://www.president.gov.mk/biografija_e.asp#top President of Republic of Macedonia - Branko Crvenkovski ] ] .

In 1986 he obtained a bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Automation from the School of Electrical Engineering at the St. Cyril and Methodius University in Skopje.

He was elected member of the Assembly of the Republic of Macedonia at the first multi-party elections in the former Yugoslavia in 1990 after serving for several years as head of department at the Semos company in Skopje. A former communist, Crvenkovski has been at the head of the Social Democratic Union of Macedonia since April 1991.

On September 5 1992 he became Macedonia's first prime minister after its secession from Yugoslavia and continued in the post for another four years following the December 1994 elections.

He served as Prime Minister from 1992 to 1998 and from 2002 until 2004. He was most recently elected in 2002 after his Social Democratic Union of Macedonia party won parliamentary elections.

In July 1996 he ordered that Albanian flags in front of government buildings in western part of the Republic of Macedonia be removed. The situation escalated with one person dead and many injured. In 2005, on his initiative, the Albanian flag was legalized.

He won the April 2004 presidential election against Sashko Kedev, and took office on May 12 2004. He then resigned as prime minister.

In February 2007, Crvenkovski expressed himself a supporter of the Ahtisaari Proposal for the status of neighboring Kosovo [http://www.makfax.com.mk/look/novina/article.tpl?IdLanguage=1&IdPublication=2&NrArticle=54282&NrIssue=266&NrSection=10]
