The President of the European Commission has called for a further enlargement of the European Union with membership of thirty plus countries.
Ursula von der Leyen made the call this morning during her annual State of the Union address to the European Parliament in Strasbourg. She told MEPs the EU cannot afford to leave “our fellow Europeans behind”. And she said it was clearly in Europe’s “strategic interest” to complete what she called “our union”.
