Summary/Abstract: The new European Commission with a 2019-2024 mandate has already its first strategic document. This is the programme that her President has presented to the European Parliament before the election for her new position. The document is signed by Ursula von der Leyen and is called: “A Union that strives for more. My agenda for Europe”. Notwithstanding this ambitious title, the document does not contain new ideas in the area of reforming the Economic and Monetary Union. It only repeats already known reforms that were undertaken by the previous European Commission (2014-2019) under the Presidency of Jean-Claude Juncker. In the current paper an overview of the EMU reforms that are proposed by Ursula von der Leyen will be presented. An analysis will be done on the level these reforms correspond to the previous agenda of the EU, before the last elections for the European Parliament in 2019.
