Jean-Claude Juncker
“Jean-Claude Juncker and his team are following your initiative with interest and will certainly take it into account when designing the political programme of the next Commission after the European Parliament elections.
We would, however, ask for your understanding that the political programme of the next Commission will be decided and agreed in light of the democratic outcome of the European Parliament elections.
Therefore, Jean-Claude Juncker has decided, as a matter of principle, not to endorse or sign up to any specific proposal or initiative until the voters have spoken on 22-25 May.”
