Who is the World's Most Powerful Woman According to Forbes

Forbes has named Ursula von der Leyen the world's most powerful woman. It seems she will remain the head of the European Commission indefinitely. Her career has faced three major crises: Brexit, Covid, and the War. Many believe she has not successfully navigated these challenges.

The 65-year-old Ursula von der Leyen has been in the position of President of the European Commission since 2019, and it appears she will retain that role for another five years. Last year, on March 7, during a congress held in Bucharest, the European People's Party (EPP) nominated her again as its candidate. Whether von der Leyen will continue to lead the European Commission will be made clear this October.

Forbes refers to her as the world's most powerful woman, while European diplomats say she is increasingly carrying herself like a queen. The Guardian posits that Europe will finally answer the famous question attributed to American diplomat Henry Kissinger: 'Who can I call if I want to speak to Europe?'
