Roberta Metsola has been elected by the Members of the European Parliament to continue serving as the President of the House of Democracy for another two and a half years. In her address, President Metsola said that she will continue to stand for a strong Parliament in a strong Europe.
“In the next months, the European Parliament will be called upon to stand up for Europe. It will not be easy and neither will it be straightforward. But I am convinced that we can do that and prove that politics remains the best agent for positive change in our societies and in our communities.” President Metsola stated this as she addressed representatives of employers, workers and civil society during the Plenary Session of EESC
“Competitiveness, security and defence, leaving nobody behind are clear electoral messages for the EU’s programme”, said the President of the European Parliament Roberta Metsola to the European Council.
EP President Metsola emphasised the strongest commitment of the Parliament to ensuring the smooth running of the process leading to the election of the next Commission President.
