Von der Leyen launches new EU Commission with surprising picks
Manage episode 440509861 series 3340722
Commission President Ursula von der Leyen unveiled her proposed team of European Commissioners, highlighting significant leadership changes. Six executive vice presidents, including Finland's Henna Virkkunen and Italy's Raffaele Fitto, will oversee key policy areas.
Von der Leyen emphasised gender parity, increasing female representation to 40%. But who are the new names, what are the newly created roles and what happens if the team fails to achieve parliamentary confirmation before taking office?
To break down all this, and what this means for the new College of Commissioners and their portfolios, I’m joined by our politics reporter, Nicoletta Ionta.
