“We vow to be the guardians of the Treaties. But our Union is not just a treasure to be guarded. Protecting our Treaties and filling them with life is a daily task."
President Ursula von der Leyen and the College of Commissioners have taken oath today before the Court of Justice of the EU in Luxembourg.
They committed to respect the Treaties and the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights, as well as carry out their duties in a fully independent way and in the general interest of the Union.
