Claudio Wílliman

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Claudio Wílliman (b. 1863 in Montevideo1934) was the care-taker president of Uruguay chosen by José Batlle y Ordóñez to succeed him after his first term in office. This is due to the fact that Uruguayan presidents were constitutionally barred from serving consecutive terms. His policies generally followed those of Batlle. He was succeeded by Batlle who was re-elected in 1911. He returned to the Senate of Uruguay but then left it to become director of the national bank in 1915.
