Prime Minister Jadranka Kosor

The Cabinet of Prime Minister Jadranka Kosor was announced on 6 July 2009.[1] It was the 11th cabinet of Croatia, and its term ended on 23 December 2011. The cabinet came into existence after Prime Minister Ivo Sanader abruptly resigned on 1 July 2009 and named Kosor as his successor.[2] It was succeeded by the Cabinet of Zoran Milanović following the centre-left Kukuriku coalition's success in the 2011 parliamentary elections.

The cabinet represented parties from the ruling coalition formed following the 2007 parliamentary elections:
