In today's episode, we discuss the delay in endorsing new EU leadership, as the 27 leaders of the European Union did not endorse any candidates this time and will be voting in the next session.

We cover the anticipated endorsements of Ursula von der Leyen for a second term as European Commission President, Antonio Costa for President of the European Council, and Kaja Kallas as the EU’s chief diplomat.

Plus, insights from Euronews’s Jorge Liboreiro on the behind-the-scenes dynamics, a look at the EPP’s meeting on accepting new right-wing members, and tips for dealing with extreme weather during summer trips to southern Europe.
