BRATISLAVA, Slovakia, Sha'ban 17, 1435, Jun 15, 2014, SPA -- Political newcomer Andrej Kiska has been inaugurated as Slovakia's new president, AP reported. The successful 51-year-old businessman-turned-philanthropist was elected to the largely ceremonial post in March. Taking the presidential oath Sunday at an extraordinary session of Parliament, Kiska becomes Slovakia's fourth president since the country gained independence after the split of Czechoslovakia in 1993. He succeeds Ivan Gasparovic, the only president since independence to win two five-year terms. --SPA 14:32 LOCAL TIME 11:32 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
