Let's make this birthday one to remember.

90 years old (Born on December 24, 1934)

Happy Birthday, President Mesic! From being the last captain steering Yugoslavia's ship to becoming Croatia’s beloved second president, your political journey has been as legendary as your witty one-liners. Your knack for diplomacy and humor made history—and headlines—proving that politics can indeed come with a smile.

Even today, you're remembered fondly for guiding Croatia through pivotal moments with grace and charm. May this birthday bring you laughter louder than parliamentary debates and joy brighter than diplomatic ties you've strengthened over decades. Here's to many more years of wisdom-filled anecdotes—we're still taking notes! Cheers to you, Mr. President!
