During a meeting with journalists, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen stressed the importance of forming a broad coalition to support a strong Europe, because, according to her, the new majority in the EU Parliament should be "pro-European and pro-Ukrainian".

I have always said that I want to create a broad majority for a strong Europe. In my first mandate, I also demonstrated what a strong Europe can achieve. My goal is to continue this path with those who are pro-European, pro-Ukrainian, for the rule of law, and from tomorrow this work begins again

The politician also noted the successful election campaign, during which she visited 17 countries and 31 cities in Europe, and saw "great confidence and trust in the European Union" among citizens.

Ursula von der Leyen also noted that after the election, it became clear that the majority of citizens supported a strong Europe, but at the same time, the extreme left and right also received support, which places great responsibility on parties at the center of the political spectrum.
