  • French European Union (EU) Commissioner Thierry Breton resigned from the bloc's executive body on Monday (September 16, 2024) with immediate effect and published a photo of his resignation on social network X.
  • The reason for Breton's resignation was that von der Leyen had asked France to withdraw his name to the commission for personal reasons and offered to give a supposedly more influential portfolio in return.
