The future Commissioner for Energy and Housing, Dan Jørgensen, won over MEPs in Brussels on Tuesday with his charm and willingness to talk. The Danish Development Minister noticeably succeeded in winning over the room. When the Social Democrat made a joke („Nuclear energy: An area where we are united in diversity.“), the MEPs laughed heartily. When he lowered his voice at the end of his hearing, spoke about the victims in Ukraine, and put his hand to his heart, the room fell silent.
