List of presidents of the Landtag of Liechtenstein
Appearance
(Redirected from Vice president of the Landtag of Liechtenstein)
The Landtagspräsident (lit. 'President of the state parliament') is the speaker of the Landtag of Liechtenstein. The president is responsible for calling meetings and representing the Landtag externally. The members of the Landtag elect the president and vice president at the opening session of every year.[1]
The position was created shortly before the ratification of the 1862 Constitution of Liechtenstein, in which the Landtag was formed for the first time, with Karl Schädler as the first office holder.[1][2]
The incumbent president has been Albert Frick, since 2013.
