Perhaps in 2024, all key positions in the European Union will be occupied by women. In accordance with the scenario under discussion, the head of the European Commission, the representative of Germany, Ursula von der Leyen, and the head of the European Parliament, the representative of Malta, Roberta Metsola, will not leave their posts.
In addition, the Prime Minister of Denmark, Mette Frederiksen, can head the European Council, and Estonian citizen Kaja Kallas can head the foreign policy sector of the European Union.
According to POLITICO, it allows the EPP (European People’s Party) to maintain control over the European Commission and Parliament; socialists will have the opportunity to govern the European Council. At the same time, liberals will be responsible for EU diplomatic policy. Ridus.ru writes about this.
The conflict between Moscow and Kiev could play a decisive role in the appointment of Kallas as head of EU foreign policy. Tusk’s return to the post of Prime Minister makes Poland the largest European state with an EPP leader. Therefore, the appointment of a representative from one of the Eastern European countries to a high position is almost inevitable.
If this comes true, each region of the European Union will have its own representative in power: Kallas for the East, Frederiksen for the North, von der Leyen for the West and Metsola for the South. In addition, Christine Lagarde will head the European Central Bank (her term ends in 2027), and Nadia Calviño recently headed the investment bank of Europe. Thus, women can indeed occupy all key positions in the European Union.
