brussels - Martin Selmayr, the controversial new Secretary-General of the European Commission, will not leave. That said the chairman of the committee after a summit in Brussels. 'He will not leave since I am the only one who can dedicate it to him', according to Jean-Claude Juncker. 'He will not leave.'

Selmayr and Juncker have been under fire since the German in February, when he was Juncker's chief of staff, was catapulted into secretary-general, the highest official position in the committee, in a few minutes. The EU parliament has begun an inquiry into the dubious procedure.

According to French President Macron, there has been 'a controversy' about Selmayr. 'We have to take that seriously. If procedures and transparency can be improved, the research has a democratic function. '

The Lower House has expressed its dissatisfaction with the appointment that smacks of favoritism. A Dutch delegation also presented recommendations in Brussels on behalf of 26 national parliaments last month to address the lack of transparency in the EU.
