What would a second term for Ursula Von der Leyen mean for Europe?

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

54% : Von der Leyen acknowledged this new political reality - and the potential election of Donald Trump in November - when she stressed the need to "defend against divisions from within and from outside".
49% : In the four years since taking over as president of the European Commission, Von der Leyen has faced an unprecedented series of crises, including the Covid pandemic, Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the overlapping energy, cost of living and migrant crises, the green transition, the rise of China abroad and far-right populism at home, the emergence of AI, and the possible return of Donald Trump.
45% : He blamed three main factors: a massive increase in borrowing; the launch of the "Green New Deal", which has led to a wave of protests from farmers in recent months; and extra powers for the EU that have "mainly been used to destroy innovation, and micro-manage the bloc's way to economic irrelevance".
40% : Growth in the EU has stuttered along for much of the past decade - in sharp contrast to the US and China - and Von der Leyen's "catastrophic mis-management of the Commission is one of the major reasons for that", said Lynn.
