Von der Leyen to address EU Parliament after series of setbacks

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

52% : The commission president is expected to urge EU lawmakers to back her key policy projects for the coming years, from continued support for war-torn Ukraine and improving the EU's defence capacities to new free trade agreements.
46% : Von der Leyen easily survived the vote as several political groups refused to back a proposal by the far right, but senior EU lawmakers urged von der Leyen at the time to work on regaining the trust of parliamentarians.
43% : The topics of competitiveness, security and defence, global trade and the European Union's next long-term budget will be the focus of the so-called State of the Union speech to lawmakers in the French city, the commission said beforehand.
39% : Von der Leyen was re-elected as commission president by EU lawmakers only last year but has since drawn criticism from many political fractions.
22% : A deal struck between von der Leyen and US President Donald Trump setting US tariffs for EU products at 15% was quickly criticized as lopsided across party lines.
