Politico Pro | The Emperor’s New Portfolio

If the French get their way, Internal Market Commissioner Thierry Breton is in line for a far-reaching economic portfolio in the next European Commission mandate. That could be a “competitiveness” remit that stands alongside a competition policy portfolio. For Politico Pro comments Filip Křenek, analyst at EUROPEUM Institute for European Policy.

Breton could get a new title of defense commissioner but the French technocrat is a practical person, he doesn’t really go for the titles. He really wants to have the authority and the power to do things.
