This bold babe is hailed as an "exceptional leader" who seamlessly steered Europe through its perilous periods, keeping the continent robust and agile amidst roiling geopolitical chaos. This accolade comes as no surprise considering the juggernaut's achievements.
Party Time in the Big B!
So, grab your fancy duds, folks! The celebration's gonna be wild this Monday at the Tipi am Kanzleramt in Berlinschmiede, where 400 bigwigs from politics, media, and biz will gather to toast the unsung heroes of society.
Belgian wordsmith and sage, Marc De Vos, will deliver von der Leyen's nicest compliments—ur, you're going to love it! And guess what? The charismatic lady had already nabbed the International Karlspreis in Aachen just a few days ago!
No Slouch at the ‘Politicaward’
Not to be overshadowed, the Politics & Communication magazine and Quadriga University host the annual Politicaward, where they'll also honor former Federal President Joachim Gauck for his legendary journey. In addition, Germany’s new Federal Minister of Housing, Verena Hubertz (SPD), will shine like a rising star as she earns the "Rising Star of the Year" trophy!
She's Done It All, Baby!
Despite the haters, Von der Leyen has left an indelible mark on the EU, from her valiant COVID-19 vaccine drive to her steadfast support for Ukraine. And who can forget her all-in push for the European Green Deal, aiming to make the EU as green as Mother Nature intended?
Her leadership in the EU's Asylum and Migration Pact and whopping €800 billion defense investment plan, "ReArm Europe," has shown her unwavering commitment to EU strength. Even when faced with a smackdown of sustainability law critiques, her initial trailblazing work on the European Green Deal made a significant mark. Hell yeah, she's earned it!
Buy Von der a Drink, Will Ya?!
