Agriculture
Nationality: Romanian
Political Affiliation: EPP
Previous job: head of committee on agriculture
Age: 40
Stooping to conquer
Cioloş was not above flattery. Welcoming the full co-decision powers MEPs have gained over agricultural policy with the Lisbon treaty, he pledged: "I will build my strategy by taking into account this new reality," and he praised the committee's members as representing the diversity of European agriculture, which he wanted to preserve.
In need of inspiration
Ulrike Rodust, German Socialist MEP: “Towards the end of the session it's hard to come up with new questions.”
Cioloş: “As it's difficult to come up with new questions, it's hard to come up with new answers.”
