EU Super-President?

Ministers ponder creation of EU super-president

BRUSSELS – Ideas kicking around in a
reflection group of select EU foreign ministers include merging the
roles of the EU Council and European Commission presidents.

A senior EU source told this website following a meeting of the club
in the Val Duchesse stately home in Brussels on Thursday (19 April) that
the new supremo would have more power than either Herman Van Rompuy or
Jose Manuel Barroso do today but also more “democratic legitimacy”
because he or she would be elected by MEPs.
