In June, EU leaders supported Ursula von der Leyen's bid for a second term as President of the European Commission, but she still needs the backing of the European Parliament's 720 members to secure her position. With the ongoing war in Ukraine and potential geopolitical shifts from the upcoming U.S. elections, von der Leyen's experience could prove beneficial. Despite having enough votes theoretically from party coalitions, uncertainties remain, especially with whispers of dissent within her own group and the need to forge alliances with other parties like the Greens. Her actions leading up to the vote could critically influence her prospects for reelection.
