Stockholm, 15 Muharram 1437/2 October 2015 (MINA) – A 27-year-old Bosnian Muslim immigrant has been named as the new Swedish minister of education, setting a role model for young, active Muslims.

Hadzialic became the deputy mayor of the Swedish city Halmstad at the age of 23, and she is a law graduate from the University of Lund.
