Metsola re-elected President of the European Parliament with overwhelming majority of votes

She is the first woman in EU history to hold the European Parliament presidency for two terms.

Roberta Metsola has won Tuesday’s European Parliament presidency vote, receiving the absolute majority of 562 votes, being re-elected as President of the institution for another two and a half years.

She is the first woman in EU history to hold the European Parliament presidency for two terms. She needed 312 votes to receive absolute majority, which she surpassed, obtaining a total of 562 votes out of the 623 valid votes cast. There were 76 blank or spoiled votes. This means that Metsola won 90.2% of the valid votes cast, which has been touted to be a record.

In her speech at Strasbourg’s first plenary session after the European Parliament elections last month, Metsola said that she will “never shy away from taking the difficult decisions.”

Following her election, Metsola spoke of a Europe for everyone, wanting people to recapture that sense of belief and enthusiasm to make the shared space safer, fairer, stronger and better.

Metsola said she wants to help build a better Europe, and bridge the remaining gaps of what people expect for Europe.

“The challenges coming our way will require strong leadership, whether we push forward with legislation that people need, negotiating with institutions, or standing up in Kyiv,” Metsola said.

She said that the last mandate has shown that “the future is anything but predictable,” but she is committed to face such challenges.

“I stood here, two and a half years ago, after my predecessor David Sassoli passed away, and he put the dignity of the people above all. I promised then that I would honour his legacy, and I renew that now, with your support, I will tirelessly continue bringing the people together,” Metsola said.

Metsola has occupied the post of European Parliament President since January 2022. She has been a Member of the European Parliament since 2013 on behalf of the Nationalist Party.
