From left, European Council President Charles Michel, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, Estonia's Prime Minister Kaja Kallas and Belgium's Prime Minister Alexander De Croo walk together to a media conference at an EU summit in Brussels, early Friday, June 28, 2024. European Union leaders signed off a trio of top appointments for their shared political institutions on Thursday evening, reinstalling German conservative Ursula von der Leyen as president of the European Commission for another five years. At the side of von der Leyen should be two new faces: Antonio Costa of Portugal as European Council President and Estonia's Kaja Kallas as the top diplomat of the world's largest trading bloc.
