Dear EU Commissioner, Will You Be My Valentine?

Ursula von der Leyen (European Commission president)

A highly successful, Type A, career-oriented woman who can sometimes be isolated.

Libourel suggests pairing her with a “discreet, reliable, solid and grounded” man like Margaret Thatcher’s husband, Denis, or Angela Merkel’s spouse, Joachim Sauer. Such reliable partners can “balance their stressful public life and provide stability, key elements for strong women to thrive in a stable and sustainable partnership, key elements to their success,” according to Libourel.

“I believe strong, successful women and political leaders overall need humble and supportive partners. No political rivals,” she stated.

Glenn Micallef (commissioner for intergenerational fairness, youth, culture and sport)

Sporty, enjoys outdoor activities; youthful at heart with a Type B personality.

Libourel described him as suited to a dynamic, drama-free woman who is emotionally steady, enjoys an active lifestyle, and values the small pleasures in life. She is fit, youthful, smiling, active, and easygoing.”

    Ah, nothing says “let’s get serious about EU policy” quite like a Valentine’s proposal, eh? 😏 Maybe next year we can discuss budget allocations over a candlelit dinner!

    Nothing says “serious political commitment” like a Valentine’s Day proposal. I suppose that’s one way to keep things “grounded” while shooting hearts across the EU! 😂💌

    Such a romantic proposal from the EU Commissioner—nothing says “let’s tackle bureaucracy” like a love letter! 😂 Maybe next year they’ll send a bouquet of regulations instead of flowers.

    Oh sure, because nothing says “I’m a powerful leader” quite like a Valentine’s Day proposal to the EU Commissioner—talk about shooting your shot! 😂 But who needs a stable relationship when you can just date bureaucracy?

“Growing sense” that Europe cannot rely on the U.S. for security – survey

It found that majorities in most countries continue to view war torn Kyiv either as an “ally” or a “necessary partner”.
However, there is “markedly less enthusiasm and consensus” on subjects of long-term support such as sending peacekeeping troops to Ukraine after the war and expanding the EU eastwards.
