Ava Karabatic, a former Playboy Model, has announced that she’ll be running for Presidency in Croatia in upcoming elections of January 2020.
Ava Karabatic previously campaigned for prostitution to be legalized but has now come one step ahead. She announced she will be running for Presidency in the upcoming election in Croatia.
Croatia will elect a new president next January. Karabatić will see herself up against the current independent president who will be hoping for a second five-year term.
Ava Karabatic made the announcement on social media. She also shared a number of snaps from a beach in Italy where she is currently on holiday.
In the caption for the photos, she wrote – “I have decided I will run for president. I have been given so many support messages on Instagram and I thank you for that”.
“Politics is my second love. I can not longer watch bad things happen to my country. It is like everyone is blind with healthy eyes, our young people leave the country, birth rates fall”, she added.
Ava Karabatic’s Election Manifesto
Ava’s manifesto, outlined in a blog post, includes the legalization of marijuana and prostitution. Solving the problem of free movement of people, and banning abortion after six weeks of pregnancy.
Earlier this year, Karabatic campaigned for legalizing sex work in the country. Karabatic claimed that it would benefit both the individuals involved and the country as prostitutes would then be required to pay taxes.
She further explained that “there are also psychological reasons, such as ‘healing’ the sexual frustrations that exist in our country”.
Ava also claimed that “I have also studied medicine and am very aware of the dangers of STDs”. She said the dangers can be avoided if prostitution becomes a legal profession”.
