East Timor picks new president after crisis year
Voters in East Timor choose a new president yesterday, hoping the election can help end deep divisions after a year of instability in one of the world’s youngest and poorest nations.
Just over half a million voters were to pick the new president in these elections that outgoing President Xanana Gusmao says is a chance to demonstrate his nation is not a failed state.
Supporters of rival candidates clashed during campaigning last week, injuring more than 30 people and prompting international troops to fire tear gas and warning shots.
