Newly elected European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is congratulated by European Union High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Federica Mogherini (R) after a vote on her election at the European Parliament in Strasbourg, eastern France on July 16, 2019. German defence minister Ursula von der Leyen was narrowly elected president of the European Commission on July 16, after winning over sceptical lawmakers. The 60-year-old conservative was nominated to become the first woman in Brussels' top job last month by the leaders of the bloc's 28 member states, to the annoyance of many MEPs.
