European Parliament election: Greens set • Table.Briefings

Terry Reintke und Bas Eickhout feiern in Lyon ihre Wahl zum Spitzen-Duo der europäischen Grünen für die Europawahlen. — Terry Reintke and Bas Eickhout celebrate their election as the top duo of the European Greens for the EU elections in Lyon.

With impassioned speeches and a top duo that must defend green policies instead of introducing fresh ideas, the European Greens’ party congress highlights the challenges the party faces in the upcoming European elections. Equally pressing is the question of their stance on von der Leyen’s potential second term.

„If Greens stop defending the Green Deal, no one else will.“ With this mantra, the European Green Party (EGP) in Lyon rallied for the 2024 European election campaign over the weekend. To represent them in the upcoming European elections, the 368 delegates from almost all EU countries chose experienced candidates: Terry Reintke and Bas Eickhout will be the faces of the European Greens in the European election campaign.
