In an article entitled Future Face of European Union Plagued by Uncertainty Deutsche Welle tries to explain need to create a President of the EU. The article even quotes Kissinger, so they might have the right idea about needing someone to call. However – shockingly – the article completely fails to mention the President of the European Commission, a post that has already existed since 1957. Further, the Commission President will be elected in 2009 by the European Parliament and is vested with more powers and legitimacy than the new position of President of the European Council, the subject of Deutsche Welle’s article.
