Избраха Жан-Клод Юнкер за председател на ЕКЖан-Клод Юнкер беше избран за председател на Европейската комисия. За това се договориха лидерите на ЕС, съобщи ИТАР-ТАСС. Бившият премиер на Луксембург ще наследи Жозе Мануел Барозу. Той ще заема поста между 2014 и 2019 година. Юнкер е кандидатът на Европейската народна партия, която спечели най-много места в европарламента. Основният му опонент беше Мартин Шулц от Партията на европейските социалисти и демократи, който досега беше председател на европарламента. Юнкер има и силната подкрепа на германския канцлер Ангела Меркел. Най-големият противник на кандидатурата на Юнкер пък беше британският премиер Дейвид Камерън. Назначаването на Юнкер трябва да бъде потвърдено от ЕП. Предложението ще бъде разгледано по време на заседанието на 16 юли. В официалния му избор обаче почти няма съмнение, тъй като Юнкер е подкрепен от двете най-големи фракции ПЕС и ЕНП. Жан-Клод Юнкер е един от инициаторите на въвеждането на единна европейска валута.

Former Luxembourg Prime Minister Jean-Claude Juncker, the EU's longest-serving elder statesman, threw his hat into the ring yesterday (9 January) for the presidency of the European Commission to succeed José Manuel Barroso. Juncker, 59, who governed for 19 years until a general election defeat last October and also chaired eurozone finance ministers for eight years from 2005 to 2013, told Germany's Inforadio: "I would be willing (to do the job), in principle, if the election programme and other things work out." Voters across the 28-nation European Union vote in late May to elect a new European Parliament. Then in June, EU leaders nominate a candidate to head the executive European Commission, taking account of the election results. The new legislature must then vote to confirm the nominee by an absolute majority of the 751 lawmakers. Juncker, a convinced European federalist and member of the centre-right Christian Social party, was asked whether he would run to be the lead candidate of the European People's Party (EPP), the main conservative grouping in the EU legislature, with a view to the Commission presidency. European Parliament leaders have contended that the lead candidate of the party that comes first in the election should be nominated as Commission president. However some EU leaders, notably German Chancellor Angela Merkel, have voiced reservations about that procedure, which they see as a parliamentary power-grab, stretching the terms of the 2009 Lisbon Treaty. Barroso, a conservative former Portuguese prime minister, has run the Commission since 2004. The Socialist group, the second largest force in the current legislature, has nominated Martin Schulz, a German Social Democrat who now presides over the European Parliament, as its candidate. Other possible contenders for the EPP nomination include French conservative Michel Barnier, who is the European commissioner for the internal market and financial regulation. However, political sources have said Merkel may prefer a serving conservative prime minister such as Ireland's Enda Kenny, Poland's Donald Tusk or Finland's Jyrki Katainen as Commission president. The EPP will anoint its candidate at a convention in Dublin on 6-7 March. The third largest political group, the centre-right Liberals, is holding a primary contest between former Belgian Prime Minister Guy Verhofstadt and Finnish European Commission Vice-President for Economic and Monetary Affairs Olli Rehn. - EurActiv Turkey Juncker, Avrupa Komisyonu başkanlığına göz kırptı - EurActiv Greece O Juncker δnλώveι πpόθuuoς Yιa tnv Πpoeδpίa tnς Kouισιόv
