Episode description

Newly elected and re-elected members of the European Parliament gather in Strasbourg for the first plenary session of the new mandate. 

Roberta Metsola has been re-elected as President of the European Parliament, but all eyes are on Ursula von der Leyen and her re-election as Commission President. What makes this plenary session so crucial, and what indications does it give us of the upcoming policies and files the new mandate will focus on? 

To understand the intricacies of this very first plenary, we spoke to our politics editor Aurélie Pugnet.
