Ursula von der Leyen reelected to a second term as European Commission prez - Business Standard

Quick Summary:

The 65-year-old's bid was boosted when the center-right European People's Party, which includes von der Leyen's Christian Democratic Union, remained the largest group in the EU Parliament after the elections.

At the side of von der Leyen will be two new faces: Antonio Costa of Portugal as European Council president and Estonia's Kaja Kallas as the top diplomat of the world's largest trading bloc.

Von der Leyen's election came as newly elected UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer was welcoming some 45 European heads of government to discuss migration, energy security and the threat from Russia as he seeks to restore relations between the UK and its continental neighbours.
