Roberta Metsola was re-elected Chief of the European Parliament.
On 16 July, EU lawmakers voted overwhelmingly to give conservative Maltese politician Roberta Metsola another term as President of the European Parliament.
Metsola was approved by a majority of EU parliamentarians to lead the EU Assembly for the next two and a half years, with 562 out of 623 supporting her reappointment.
Metsola is a Maltese lawmaker who became the first woman in 20 years to lead the European Union Assembly in 2022.
She is only the second president, after Germany’s Martin Schulz, to win another term since the EU Parliament became a directly elected institution in 1979.
