EU Presidency: Timmermans frontrunner as EU leaders decide against Weber for Commission president

EU leaders have agreed that conservative German candidate Manfred Weber will not become president of the next European Commission, Germany’s Die Welt daily reported on Friday, citing sources familiar with the decision. Instead, Dutch Socialist Frans Timmermans is now the frontrunner for the EU’s top job.

The decision was reached during talks on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Osaka, Japan, Die Welt said.

According to Bloomberg, German Chancellor Angela Merkel had endorsed Weber and  Timmermans from the Netherlands as the only candidates left in the race to lead the EU executive.

Without mentioning them by name, Merkel made clear that the centre-right German, from her political family, the EPP, and the centre-left Dutchman, are the official and only contenders to head the Commission. That leaves liberal Margrethe Vestager, the European Union’s antitrust chief, out of the race.

The Netherlands: Painting the Town Orange: A Day Out With the Dutch - by Sarah Lyall at the World Cup - The New York Times

It is getting increasingly difficult to find anyone eager to play the Netherlands at this World Cup, where the Dutch won all three of theirgroup games and suddenly look to be a formidable title challenger.

But  everyone loves the Dutch fans, even the countries that lose to them (as Canada’s team would last week, 2-1, though both teams advanced to the knockout rounds).
