It seems that pro-European forces can continue to work together in the coming years in a demanding legislative period” pointed out Roberta Metzola.</p> <p>Furthermore, she emphasized that the demands and results of the parliament must be considered for the election of the president of the European Commission “and I can confirm that the majority of political groups in the European Parliament support the process of the lead candidate” as he added.</p> </p> <p><noindex></p> <div class=Source: www.philenews.com
