Adrian Laziades (Iavonian: Ανδριαν Λαζιάδης, born 1 January 1965) is a Iavonian politician currently serving as the prime minister of Iavonia since 2016. He has been leader of Diamesloavités party since 2014, after the Αρκαδικό Σκάνδαλο Κατοικίας which spurred the rising of the left Diamesloavités to a position of power in the Gianniadis government. Laziades has been a member of government since 2008 after his election to The Boule in a surprising upset victory against the formerly popular MoP Elias Trainelis. He would lead his party to a major coalition role in the 2016 Iavonian Elections.
Laziades' appointment followed a protracted constitutional crisis spanning two years, during which King George XIII of Iavonia repeatedly declined to appoint him, citing his anti-monarchist views and past leftism. The crisis would only be resolved with the interference of military officials to "encourage" the king to change his opinion on the matter, in what has been cited as a major shift in monarchical-military relations.
Laziades has commonly portrayed himself as a common-sense candidate, as well as a "Compassionate Moderate". These self-descriptors are broadly believed to be inaccurate, owing to his development of the radical Anti-International Regionalism school of international affairs, a militaristic foreign policy, and notably statist economic policies. Under his term as Prime Minister, concerns have been raised internationally about the surpression of pro-monarchic voices in media and voting systems, the usage of wiretapping on political opponents by members of the Diamesloavités, smear campaigns against other leaders both abroad and internally, and a renewed utilization of fascistic or generally discriminatory terms for minority populations within the country, exacerbated by Anti-International Regionalism's perceived racial basis. Laziades' government was responsible for the legalization of same-sex adoption, following the legalization of same-sex marriage by his direct predecessor.
