European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is seeking to form a centrist coalition after the far-right made significant gains in the recent European Parliament elections. Von der Leyen, whose party won the most seats, is aiming to secure a second term by collaborating with social democrats and liberals in Brussels. French President Emmanuel Macron is reportedly leaning towards endorsing her for another term, adding a crucial layer of support. Von der Leyen faces a challenging balancing act to maintain a centrist majority and secure her position amid the shifting political landscape. The efforts to form this coalition began on Monday.
