Walburga Habsburg Douglas, who also served as vice-president of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe Parliamentary Assembly, was first elected in 2006.


During a visit to Virginia in November 2012, Walburga suffered a severe stroke and spent several months in a Washington, D.C., hospital.   She has since made a full recovery.
