+++BREAKING+++ @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu to greet MEPs at the beginning of her #SOTEU, exact wording ("Dear ladies and gentlemen" vs "Dear members of this House") still subject to frantic last-minute changes +++BREAKING+++

#SOTEU: who will be the high ranking guest providing von der Leyen's show the charisma she cruelly lacks?

Dua Lipa for enlargement?

Ferran Torres for European excellency?

Forgot to mention that #SOTEU runs on Greek time. We'll start whenever we get there lol 😉

#SOTEU live tweeting here. A first observation.

@vkreilinger.bsky.social Sep 16, 2026, 6:54 AM

Whenever #SOTEU approaches, I feel old, like a political dinosaur, having watched and commented all SOTEUs since the first with Barroso. The early 2010s! A few people tweeting EU-institutional (@jonworth.eu, @ronpatz.bsky.social Julien Frisch, Dana Manescu, the late Kosmopolit), hashtag invented.

#SOTEU today: to mark next year’s 70th anniversary of the Treaty of Rome, the European Commission president will call for a “new Congress of Europe” echoing that held at The Hague in 1948.
plus moving from #CETA to an #Alliance for the Future

It’s about to start: von der Leyen’s #SOTEU speech starts at 9 am. Expectations are infinite. How will the tightrope walk on the volcano go? Will it be more of a vision or a stock-taking exercise?curious to see how she intends to deliver for ‘Europe’s independence’ in concrete.

Will be interesting to see what is announced at this year's SOTEU.

starts in 15 minutes time #eu #SOTEU

@bernd-lange.bsky.social Sep 16, 2026, 6:25 AM

Gleich geht es los: Um 9 Uhr beginnt von der Leyens #SOTEU-Rede. Die Erwartungen sind riesig. Wie läuft der Drahtseilakt auf dem Vulkan? Wird es doch noch eine Mission Possible? Eher Vision oder Bestandsaufnahme? Bin gespannt wie sie „Europas Unabhängigkeit“ konkret sichern will

@hrw-brussels.bsky.social Sep 16, 2026, 6:19 AM

Last year @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu proposed suspending the EU - Israel trade agreement and sanctioning "extremist" ministers and settlers.

One year on, she has almost nothing to show - and a lot more to deliver, starting with a settlement trade ban.
