Moscovici eyes EU commission presidency
By EUobserver
Pierre Moscovici, the French EU finance commissioner, said on France 2 television on Monday that he was "interested" in running for president of the European Commission, but that "the time for candidacy has not come". Over the weekend, in an interview with Germany's Die Welt, he said he has the "necessary experience" for the position and that he would not "campaign to campaign, but with the ambition to win".
