Jean Claude Junker’s protégé Martin Selmayr has recently been appointed as the Secretary-General of the European Commission, the highest Civil Service office in the organisation.
Martin has the image of the mysterious, incisive and tactful bureaucrat who likes to win at all costs. Following his appointment as the Secretary-General, political analysts have gone on to say that during the Brexit negotiations, the real power may reside with Martin Selmayr rather than his former boss Junker.
He has steamrolled higher-ranking commissioners, blocked legislation, upended negotiations and picked fights with officials from national governments.
