The interview with Esteban González Pons (Valencia, 1964) in a café in the Rotterdam congress center turns out to be bumpy. MEPs from different countries and European Commissioner Margaritis Schinas come to congratulate him on his appointment as Vice President of the European People’s Party (EPP). He does not take badly to have been the elected vice president with the least votes after the departure of another Spaniard, who was very popular in the party, the former secretary general Antonio López Istúriz, Although the PP loses the general secretary of the EPP, González Pons values the important powers of his vice presidency in the new model of the European party.
