On Thursday, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen delivered her final address to EU lawmakers, seeking their support for a second term. She emphasized her commitment to enhancing Europe's defense capabilities and strengthening its industrial sector through increased investment.
During her speech, von der Leyen reaffirmed the EU's unwavering support for Ukraine in the face of Russia's ongoing aggression. She also expressed strong disapproval of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban's recent visit to Moscow, characterizing it as an "appeasement mission" that occurred shortly after Hungary assumed the rotating EU presidency in July.
Furthermore, von der Leyen called for an immediate and lasting ceasefire in the Palestinian territory of Gaza, urging an end to the "bloodshed" and emphasizing the need for peace.
