Ursula Von Der Phaizer
aka von Der LIER
No Ursula, she is corrupt.
They are all corrupt.
No shyte!
@@andreeamihaelaonea6059
Can we eliminate corruption ?
And how ?
...
I remember a saying when I was behind the iron curtain:
"I hope my boss drives a Bugatti, then I will drive at least a Wolsvagen ..."
My main concern is, whoever is chosen must first and foremost be a staunch Europeanist. Ideally, someone who regardless of political affiliation, once in office will care for the EU's interests as whole (even though this is "easier said than done" because member-states have more influence than others and will always bicker among themselves).
Agree
Mario Draghi believes that European countries should integrate more
They are all members of the Tribe with dual citizenship.
It is a sham.!
@@domenicodecaro5154 NOBODY asked the opinion of Mario Gaga Draghi.
@@vasilispatsalidis5683 I did, so this automatically means you're wrong.
As a romanian, id say Iohannis as leader of the comission would be quite a shock. Here he is very unpopular because he was generaly a hands off president.
And more than that, he is disliked bh the fact he allowed the PSD to return to goverment despite the fact he promised at his re-election that he will never do that
I hope they have luxury planes in Brussels.
PS: am vrea noi sa dam teapa mai departe dar tare ma tem ca nu si-o ia nimeni....
Not popular in his country is good for European bureaucracy. Like draghi. Very unpopular in Italy, he was never elected anywhere and was Italian PM for "God's will" (god fathers, I mean). Unable to meet the goals as boss in ECB. Not a politicians just a banker's subject. So.... very, veeeeeery good for European bureaucracy. 👎👎👎
well Von der Leyen was also unpopular in her home country , sending such politicians to EU is sometime a way to get rid of them in your country
@@jumboonMany things that Meloni has enjoyed at an economic level to boost her Government are the responsability of Draghi's reforms though.
@@veronicajensen7690 wait they do so in germany. I thought we were the only ones who viewed the European Parliament as a political junkyard
No to anyone with WEF CONNECTIONS
As a romanian, I can tell that Iohannis is HATED in Romania. He is very unpopular here because of his arrogance. He frequently goes in international tours with rented private jets (his schedule is very lite) and says that the price of his travels are state-secrets and doesn't publish them. The last time he was in an interview in press was in like 2018.
Romanian here.... There will be a lot of anti-Iohannis comments from USR-voters but just ignore them. The Romanian constitution doesn't give the president the prerogatives that they imagine it does. Iohannis did a great job considering he wields very little power in the state. Romanians in general lack even the most fundamendal understanding of the consititutional order of the state. They show up to vote in large number for the presidential elections but then forget to vote in the parliamentary elections because they "don't trust the parliament". But the parliament votes on who the prime minister is and the prime-minister has all the power in Romania. So, anti-Iohannis comments will come from ldiots who don't even understand how their own country works!! :(
I LOVE YOUR PFP!
🤥
Romanian here: Believe me, externally Klaus Iohannis is praised by nearly the entire western world but when it comes to internal politics, he only manages to continuously hit historic lows for his public trust. His lack of transparency (a core european value) when it comes to presidential spending practices and also lack of communication / general inactivity as head of state since his last election in 2019 only made him more and more unpopular.
ALSO, even though during his presidency, Romania didn t have a hard right gov., current polls show that the next parliament is set to have about more than a fifth of its seats taken by right wing, eurosceptic, parties, with Klaus Iohannis being seen as one of the main causes of this rise. (due to his unpopularity, opposition has generally taken a more anti western rhetoric). Remember, in 2015, Romania had no explicitly right wing party in parliament, now in 2024, it not only has, but that is also set to grow.
Please, if you care about the EU, as much as it pains me to say, do not even think, (let alone trust) Iohannis for the EC President position. - and that applies to NATO also
We can't let corrupt people get to such positions. From Portugal, Costa is praised by international voices but terrible here
The party with the greatest power remains the same during the years that Romania has been a country (PSD), the same disguised and corrupt communists, with a majority in the government, forming a coalition to govern, Iohannis cannot do much either.
I agree that this position would be good if it fell to someone from Eastern Europe, especially now with the Russian aggression on the borders.
@@joaquimbarbosa896 Disiento, de que corruptos estas hablando?
All of them are autocrats. The saluvation comes from the streets
Klaus seems like a capable guy
Ursula Von Disaster!!
as a romanian living outside the EU, my jaw dropped and my raw onions fell out of my mouth when I saw Klaus as #1 likely candidate

If he could fix Italy then he can fix anything, really
@@mrhills8868He also has many good points
@@mrhills8868 Well, he didn't fix Italy, still broke and broken.
@@buddy1155
Italy needs to liberalize their economy, just do that and the country can have a chance
@@pablobomgiorno8273 The problem is that Italy is one of the most corrupt countries in Europe, especially the south.
Look at all the corrupt countries and all the poor countries, they are the same.
Businesses don't want to invest in a corrupt country.
Ursula, get lost. 🤮🤮🤮
she has done a resonable job i think as someone who hated her in german politics : /
👍👍👍👍 sofort
Thank God. I cannot stand this woman any more. I was so happy when she got elected, her first few months "in office" were really strong. But as the pandemic begun, and everything that followed since, she has been getting worse and worse.

Draghi is the most reasonable choice.
With Draghi, the EU will go back to foot dragging, edulcorating and compromising times of say Jean-Claude Juncker
@@dprout3392 foot dragging and compromise sounds good, I prefer it to the "if you are not with us you are against us" "if you vote for a wrong PM of your country we have ways (of dealing with them" line of von der Leyen
@@veronicajensen7690 On the assumption that one intelligent person does not make the same mistake twice, I would rather have Ursula who has been through a lot defending Europeans like no one else of the previous Presidencies and not bet on unknown quantities, especially at this time in our history.
for sure not for the peoples of europe. greetings from italy and remembering greece
@@dprout3392defending Europeans, how exactly lol? Where was the help when the EU’s external borders were being attacked by illegal migrants coming from Belarus? Words of solidarity came, but the action part was reserved to member states - and rightfully so.
If these are the options... all in Draghi
you guys have no idea of the nightmare we lived in Italy with him. If you want to extend that nightmare to the rest of Europe, go ahead
Draghi has the most experience and is the most respected candidate. People like Schmit are not even popular in their own countries.
Draghi is much more dangerous for the EU than Von der Leyen. He will bring EU debt crises and crash the common currency Euro!
DRAGHI IS PRO US!!!! Nothing will change!!!!
He is a Rothchild employee like Macron.
Do you really understand what that means.?
Really.?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Draghi is a technocrat pushed by Macron (backed by the elites). I wouldn’t trust anyone backed by Macron. Even worse choice than Ursula von der Leyen.
I have to say, this is one of the most well presented channels in terms of giving the crucial information in an easy understandable way from a visual perspective. Well done.
Thank you so much :)
Could you do a piece on EuroNews site being bought out by Hungary?
As the Germans say, the problem is that you can only choose between leprosy and cholera..
That seems like a lazy statement;) We have so much more choice in Europe than the 2 political parties in the US. I'm quite proud and happy about that
@@severusrogue259 Sorry, but looks like you don't understand, how this system works..
Unfortunately almost no differences between political parties in the US and certainly in the EU's countries as well. They do not act according to an ideology, because they don't have it.
Only difference is who pays them, which group of billionaires.
Lepra ani cholera, tato paní, křesťanka, má asi sedm dětí,tak ta by se měla stavět za mír, mečem válku nevyhrajes,ona myslí jen ve svůj prospěch, jakoby mistryně obrany ,jestli se nepletu,selhala a teď selhala úplně, já bych ji nevolila, věřící se vždycky obrací na tu stranu že které aspoň kape.
Yes,its true , sadly !
Yes, sadly true!
That’s a lot of if’s to be honest. Irelands Taoiseach is part of the Epp family, I don’t think that he‘d vote against Von der Leyen.
Everything else depends on the negotiations. If Epp can reach an agreement with ecr and re or S&D and RE, I don't think the national politicians would intervene, as they are very interested in having their people in the Commission
Whoever the person is should be one that places Europe and it’s European citizens first and foremost.
Politicians need to place their Nationals’s interests first…as a matter of urgency!
Time is running out!!!!
5 years at a top job is enough for any life time. All this long time pro politician gerusiasts are just odd. And they are everywhere. Average retirement age minus five years should be the oldest age to go for any top job, with no further extension possible.
(🇪🇸/🇬🇧)
Sinceramente creo que el candidato alternativo que tiene mas posibilidades de quitarle el puesto a Ursula es Mario Draghi, principalmente porque es bastante neutral, lidero las medidas en la crisis del euro y es bastante conocido tanto por la ciudadanía como por los 27 líderes.
I sincerely believe that the alternative candidate who has the best chance of taking Ursula's position is Mario Draghi, mainly because he is quite neutral, he led the measures in the euro crisis and is well known by both the citizens and the 27 leaders.
Ni se os ocurra votarle. No teneis ni idea de todo el dolor que nos ha causado en Italia, quitandonos nuestros derechos fundamentales, con chantajes inmorales e ilegales. si quereis extender a toda Europa la pesadilla que vivimos cuando fue primer ministro de Italia, adelante! Pero si quereis vivir con vuestra libertad y derechos fundamentales en su sitio, os recomiendo estar muy lejos de aquel personaje!
I would be very down with a Draghi presidency.
Draghi is another Rothchild stooge.
NOTHING good can come from him, except more betrayal and misery for the European population.
Spot on.
👍👍👍 Wir werden nicht gefragt!????
you would be in jail, no possibility to travel unless you satisfy the crazy requests of his pharMafiaceuticals friends
@@SilvanaPatrono-iu8bq Found the conspiracy theorist. Guess what buddy, the Earth is not flat.
Shouldn't that be "but by whom?"
Thank you
This is the best news of the 2020s. von der Leyen has been a disaster. Draghi has a proven track record.
as an Italiian I can tell he was the worst nightmare we had since Benito in terms of violation of human rights
I was waiting for the moment they said "Hungary is against"
As a Romanian I see Iohannis as a complete joke. You should check Recorder, who are a journalist team that has exposed Iohannis' spending scheme over his private jet's that are from tax money.
If the EP elections, as polls predict, have the EPP losing ground to more conservative parties. I except that ECR will become kingmaker. Key for Von der Leyden is support from the Polish PIS party, currently in opposition at home and Italy’s FDI party which is in power. If Von der Leyden has done a deal with Italy’s PM Meloni she should make it. If not, the EPP will need another option, possibly Sweden’s Karl Bildt or Ireland’s Leo Varadkar.
EU citizens shoud be the ones voting on such candidate. Or we should just have a role of an EU president or something like that.
I don't trust the average EU citizen to make a good choice, to be honest most people don't even know the candidates or their capabilities.
But why? In most eu countries such as Germany, Austria, Poland and many more the people elect a parliament which then elects a government. It works perfectly fine
I have a lot of doubts, there are already European votes, it makes no sense to also choose the functions they perform, if that were the case we should go position by function choosing each one.
No. All positions in the Commission should be assigned from candidates because they need to be professionals and experts, not just people good at talking. The Commission has no real power, they just do the complex political and legal work.
@@lellyparker I could not agree more.
Good joke as no one will be allowed to stand agais her as for normal
In Romania Klaus Iohannis is under 10% popularity.
yes, and he need a new job sun..
WHY is anyone surprised that Ursula is on her way out??? She has been horrible and needs to go.
Super interesting!!
If anyone ever wants to put Iohannis in such position, must know full well that he deals with the 2 parties coalition, highly influential and corrupt, and their network expands much further than politics
When even Orban likes you, you know you are serious business.
Does anyone know the name of the first song in this video ? It’s amazing
how to vote for Draghi?
Regardless of political color, I think that the double mandate should be avoided in this phase of EU integration, indeed it should be forbidden for two consecutive commission presidents to be from the same nation, because it is important to make everyone participate.
"by whom" please
someone explain the math at 4:15 cuz that score doesnt make any sense to me
2:00 Czechia with its current government should definitely be "Leaning for". Saying that we would want a Commision president from our own region is pure, baseless speculation and frankly seems like a projection.
How about Macron as UvdL’s successor? Maybe that’s why he called the election in France?
Oh lord who would back him
France had a heart attack, vive la France!
Elections are not for president, he stays unless he resigns as well, but maybe he's hoping he made France so ungovernable that the right wing popularity will drop after they have a government
as a romania that voted for Iohanis 3 times. I could tell you that a large percentage of Romanians do not like how he handled the internal aspect.
The far right is oposed to him. The progressive hate him for a scandal in regards to the cost of his transportation with private jets..
My ohn opinion is that he, would not be a good candidate
By whom?
Put there somebody with common sense, accountability and abiding for the interests of the european citizens.
Other possibilities: Valdis Dombrovskis, Thierry Breton, Josep Borrell Fontelles.
Breton and Fontelles are too old but Dombrovskis is perfect. He is even Eastern European!
Anything except Ursula, is fine.
Totally agreed! 🙏🏻😇💖
Johannis is worse, believe me....😊
All are bad choices. Draghi with the elites, Johannis is controlled by US.
The Romanian one is worse! He is corrupt as hell
As a Romanian, I would be ashamed and mad to see Klaus Johannis in any important EU position. Imagine a scenario where Joe Biden would unite the Republican and Democratic parties into one electoral alliance against democracy and then dissapear only to give short and sporadic arrogant interviews. Why should we export such a toxic, spineless person to the EU? He totally ignored us as a president, we are too small for his EU dreams. Giving him a EU position would be an insult to the Romanian people, not a pride at all.
and for Putin is just offering a glass of wine to his opponent
Agree with all, except Germany or French candidates!! Tired of those 2 nations arrogance. Many problems in todays Europe are the leader and former leaders of those 2 nations!! Specially: Scröder, Angela Merkel and Sarkozy!!
Angela 😡🤬🤬what pressure she put on Serbia to recognise Kosovo ,hope she goes to hell.
I highly doubt that...
When will the video of the Italian parties on the European elections be released? Has any information been released yet? Do you need help deciphering Italy's intricate political system?🤣
just to give you an example of the level of corruption, Italians who live abroad have not received the voting ballots, meaning we are deprived of the right to vote. This is a classic, we always receive them several weeks after the elections. Know why? Beacause we do not only listen to Italian media and we represent a danger for their corrupted plans-
There are all the same trush.
Radek Sikorski should be the one.

I hope its someone that understands EU is a trade union , not a central goverment . We never voted for that , and i dont want it .
Poland will not support her either.
She work for America interest , sad for EU .
They all do. Draghi is as worse if not a greater disaster than this woman.
I don't think that anything will change. Born Austrian here, I can't afford a house even though my gross income is 3000€.
And the immigration is crazy. My bus today was at a random 5pm full with 25 people, out of which 23 were Muslims. There aren't many Austrians and are de facto being replaced. Look at the demographic of Vienna. This election will not change that fact. I will be a minority in my own country in 1~2 decades.
I was in Belgium 2 weeks ago and it's even worse there. We are commiting collective suicide.
Same all over Europe. Low birth rate doesn't help us either. I will do my part and have at least 5 children. Talked to my fiancé and she agrees. We have to do everything necessary for a better future for europeans
@@eyvindr. Hopefully your wage can support them. Good luck, you will need it to care proper care of them (independently from wages)
And learn tobdo your low paid jobs too. Migrants are leaving their homes because of the poor conditions, largely due to transfer now wealth from international monetary bodies and unfair terms of trade. Let's see if brics solves the problem.

STOP - LOBBY - MAFIA
Even if Draghi could be old, is the one who advantaged more the youngs in his government with his policies, both intentionally and unintentionally
he was the worst nightmare ever experienced in my country, Italy
Its Its all quite unimportant, she's had her snout in the trough and will walk away with plenty more.
Draghi takes the cake... He's the best pick in decades
your comment shows you just rely on what the paid media report nut in fact, you have no clue. He was the worst nightmare we had in Italy since WW2 in terms of violation of human rights and also the cause of a 30% prices raise. If you want to extend the nightmare to the rest of Europe, go ahead
i dont why Greece, Croatia, Portugal would vote for Von?
How can Iohannis be an option if he's mandate only ends im Dec 24?
He can resign and go, he hasnt done shit here since reelected
But may God help Europe
Europa nicht den leyen überlassen !
satan himself could be an alternative...
Although Ireland see Palestinians lives are every bit as equal as an Israeli life, the Irish government have said that VdL's gaffe greenlighting Israel would not be enough to vote against her.
Ireland will soon change opinion....immigration arrived even there.
Andrej Plenkovic has a lot to do at home, he is likely to refuse the offer so he does not give ammunition to opposition to make him look distracted by EU.
Beg to differ. Plenkovic will not refuse, given even half a chance.
But you are right. Now that he made the new ruling coalition with the worst extreme right catholibans, he has a moral obligation to forget his EU ambitions, stay on as the Croatian PM and hold in check the evil he unleashed.
@@branko4033 That is why I voted for HDZ. You cannot run the campaign only on ''opposition bad'' without saying what would you do better. Zoki is a clown who would not be able to do half as good. We saw what he was capable of while he was prime minister, we saw the chaos and aftermath. He already ruined Croatian image as a president when he decided to side with Orban on Ukraine issue. Calling Germans Swabians as a President of Country is bad representation of our people and saying we should turn back to EU and turn to our people, Serbs and Bosnian Muslims. No thank you.
What exactly is he doing at home beside glorifying himself??
By Sikorski hopefully
When von der Leyern was chosen to her position, the political situation was much calmer. It was easier to find a candidate that most could get behind.
Now on the other hand, people are incredibly polarized. Even people supporting EU integration hate each other for reasons that don't even matter in the EU-context, so they let these more petty reasons to get in the way.
But why I do believe Leyern should be changed, is because having someone for more than two terms in that position is too long.
I think Iohannis should become the head of NATO, he is more suited to that since it doesn't even demand that much popular support.
Draghi might be old but work as a stopgap before things calm down a bit.
Beelzebub would make a suitable replacement!
klaus iohannis coruption level ⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️
Boris Johnson . He s no principles either .

With what You've Presented here, what chance does the People of Europe have.
Not, one Candidate that I'd help across the Road.
And then theirs Ursula, who has been a Disaster is their NOBODY in Europe that could put on a Decent Show.

I'm not surprised 4,3 chances on 10.
Undoubtedly by somebody worse, (if worse can be conceived...)
No one’s of them !
Very good to change Úrsula von der Leyen😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Von der Leyen dimissioni subito!! Vergogna sopra tutti i limiti.
Draghi. He saved Europe and he clearly understands that what we call Europe isn’t dna but a “space of ideas and way of life”, a space created by the Greeks , made political entity by Alexander, grew with Rome and came to today through countless struggles.
But if Iohannis wins, would that open the door for von de leyen to get the NATO job? Let's hope not. I am one of the disappointed with her. Her support for Israel is a deal breaker for me. She should also be on sight of the ICC for that.
Always knew Adolf and Eva has a child.
EU NEEDS TO GET BACK TO SEPERATE COUNTRIES
Draghi the best choice
