Von der Leyen marks 100 days of 2nd term

EU chief sees Washington as 'an ally' despite differences over Kyiv, tariffs

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen touted her first 100 days of second term by claiming the US is still an ally despite the actions of President Donald Trump's administration.

Von der Leyen started her speech with a somber reminder of the harsh reality of the world.

"The world around us is changing at lightning speed. Geopolitical shifts are shaking alliances. Decades-old certainties are crumbling," she told a news conference on Sunday.
