Ossinovski was voted as mayor in an especial meeting of the city council after the no confidence motion of his predecessor Mihhail Kõlvart. The four political parties that voted against Kõlvart, previously held coalition meetings for the last 2 weeks to make agreements. The mayor’s position to be given to the Social Democratic party was in that agreement.
