Sophie #Wilmès is running in the #EU election and will lead the list of the francophone centrist party Mouvement Réformateur (MR).
Wilmès replaces European Council President Charles Michel, who announced his bid to run in the EU election in January but pulled out a short while later in a dramatic U-turn after his candidacy sparked a major backlash.
Wilmès, 49, is a former #Belgian prime minister who took over from Michel in 2019.
