BELGRADE, Serbia — Serbian Prime Minister Ana Brnabic's office announced Wednesday that her partner has given birth to a baby boy.
A statement said the birth mother, Milica Djurdjic, and baby, reportedly a boy named Igor, were "doing fine".
Ms Brnabic, 43, became both Serbia's first female and first gay prime minister in June 2017.
Her appointment was seen as a surprise move for the Balkan nation where same-sex marriage is not recognised.
"Ana Brnabic is one of the first prime ministers whose partner has given birth while in office... and the first in the world in a same-sex couple," the AFP agency quoted her office as saying.
Ms Djurdjic, who works as a doctor, became pregnant though artificial insemination. She and Ms Brnabic met at a gay bar in the capital, Belgrade.
