Tomčeva re-elected as Vice-President of the EPP Group

Romana Tomčeva has been re-elected as deputy leader of the European People's Party (EPP) for another term of two and a half years, ensuring her position until the end of the current parliamentary term in 2029. She received 129 out of 182 votes in the election, which was contested by 11 other candidates. Tomčeva emphasized that her re-election signals the EPP's desire for continued cooperation with Slovenia's Democratic Party (SDS). This follows the recent expulsion of SDS member Branko Grims from the EPP due to alleged poor work ethics and actions against conservative and European values. Among Slovenian MEPs in the EPP, Tomčeva remains alongside Milan Zver, Zala Černilec Tomašič (both from SDS), and Matej Tonin (from NSi). Meanwhile, German MEP Manfred Weber has been re-elected as EPP president for his fifth term, receiving strong support within the group. The election of leaders within the EPP, along with similar processes in other parliamentary groups like the Socialists and Democrats (S&D) and Renew Europe, marks the beginning of preparations for new parliamentary leadership ahead of upcoming European elections.
