Sophie Wilm\u00e8s (Belgium\/Renew Europe)Wilm\u00e8s (49) is a former Belgian prime minister, the first woman to hold the position, and the successor to current European Council president Charles Michel.\u00a0 \u00a0The Belgian led the list of the liberal Mouvement Reformateur (MR) party, which won around 540,000 votes in the June elections &#8211; equivalent to three of 22 seats.\u00a0\u00a0The MR&#8217;s top candidate studied communications and financial management, and also worked for a time as a financial officer for the European Commission and as a financial and economic consultant for a law firm.\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0In 2015, she was budget and civil service minister until she became prime minister of Belgium from October 2019 to October 2020, when she also took on the role of deputy prime minister and foreign affairs minister.\u00a0 \u00a0In the summer of 2022, she stepped down from her roles for personal reasons &#8211; but is now ready to shape EU policy.\u00a0 \u00a02. Jo\u00e3o Cotrim de Figueiredo (Portugal\/Others)Another interesting profile is that of businessman and a politician, liberal Jo\u00e3o Cotrim de Figueiredo (62).\u00a0 \u00a0ADVERTISEMENTCotrim de Figueiredo won one of two seats for the Iniciativa Liberal (Liberal Initiative) party for the first time in the EU elections.\u00a0 \u00a0An MBA holder and economics graduate with experience in the financial sector, between 2013 and 2016, he was chairman of the board of directors of Turismo de Portugal, and only became a politician in 2019, when he was elected as a deputy for the Lisbon constituency in the 2019 Portuguese legislative elections.\u00a03.\u00a0Pasquale Tridico\u00a0(Italy\/NI)Tridico (48) holds a PhD in Economics from the University Roma Tre and served as president of the National Institute of Social Security (INPS) from 2019 to 2023. \u00a0He was involved in the reform of the Italian pension system and the implementation of a so-called &#8216;citizenship income&#8217; initiative, a minimum income scheme, which might inspire his activity as an MEP.\u00a0 \u00a0\u201cThe idea of a European basic income financed by all, with an increase in the European budget, and used on the basis of need, where the crisis bites the most, would amortise the social spending of a state,\u201d Tridico said in an interview last year.\u00a0ADVERTISEMENTThe Italian has published articles on economic growth, welfare models, sustainable development and inequality in various academic journals &#8211; and teaches courses on economic policy and labour economics.\u00a0 \u00a0Now it&#8217;s his turn to shape future policy with the Five Star Movement party.\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a04. Fabio de Masi (Germany\/Others)German-Italian MEP Fabio de Masi (44) was the leading candidate of Sahra Wagenknecht&#8217;s Alliance, a newly formed party put together by former members of Die Linke. \u00a0\u00a0He (and his party, which won six\u00a0seats) will be another to watch in the next mandate.\u00a0 \u00a0De Masi is an economist and has some previous experience in the European Parliament, where he was a member until 2017.\u00a0 \u00a0ADVERTISEMENTThe economist was a member of the finance committee, as well as vice-chairman of a special committee investigating money laundering and tax evasion, due to his strong credentials in the fight against corruption. \u00a0During his time in the German parliament (2017-2021), he headed an investigation into the collapse of German payments company Wirecard.\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a05. S\u00e9rgio Gon\u00e7alves (Portugal\/S&amp;D)In March Portugal went to the polls and saw a change of regime after eight years of Socialist-led government headed by Antonio Costa.\u00a0 \u00a0A coalition of conservative forces won the national elections and the Portuguese Socialist Party decided to change its strategy for the EU elections.Gon\u00e7alves, 45, is part of that new generation of Portuguese Socialists in Brussels and Strasbourg, with eight members &#8211; only one fewer than the last mandate. \u00a0ADVERTISEMENTFrom 2022 to 2023, he led the Portuguese Socialist Party in Madeira.\u00a0 \u00a0Gon\u00e7alves has dedicated his professional career to the business sector, holding a degree in economics and a master&#8217;s degree in international management.\u00a0 \u00a0MEPs will hold their first parliamentary committee meetings between 22 and 25 July.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Summarize this content to 2000 words in 6 paragraphs in Arabic The European Parliament is establishing new political groups and leadership, with the first constituent plenary session on 16-19 July &#8211; Euronews has earmarked MEPs likely to shape economic and finance policy in the new assembly.
