Francisco Guterres, popularly known as Lú-Olo (born 7 September 1954),[1][2] is an East Timorese politician who served as 6th president of East Timor from 2017 to 2022. He is also the president of the political party Fretilin, and he was the first president of the National Parliament of East Timor from 2002 to 2007.
As the Fretilin candidate, he stood in the 2007 presidential election and 2012 presidential election, but was defeated in the second round by independent candidates on both occasions. He also contested the 2017 presidential election, and with the support of former prime minister Xanana Gusmão and the CNRT, was elected the 6th president of East Timor. Guterres was run for re-election in 2022 for second term, but defeated in a landslide in the second round by Ramos-Horta.[3]
He is considered as a centre-left politician.[4]
