The President of the European Commission is the head of the European Commission (the executive branch of the :European Union) and therefore the most powerful officeholder in the EU, (loosely) analogous to the role of a country's Prime-Minister / Head of Government (as opposed to the separate role of President of the European Council, who could be seen as the European Union's Head of State)〔http://fpc.org.uk/articles/201〕 – although, unlike a national head of government, the President of the Commission does not determine foreign policy, command troops or raise taxes.〔 The President of the Commission is responsible for allocating portfolios to members of the Commission and can reshuffle or dismiss them if needed. They determine the Commission's policy agenda and all the legislative proposals it produces (the Commission is the only body that can propose EU laws). The President of the Commission also represents the EU abroad together with the President of the European Council and the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy. The post was established in 1958 and is elected by the European Parliament, on a proposal of the European Council for five-year terms. Once appointed, he or she, along with the Commission, is responsible to Parliament which can censure the President. The current President is Jean-Claude Juncker, who took office on 1 November 2014. He is a member of the European People's Party (EPP) and is the former Prime Minister of Luxembourg. Juncker is the twelfth President and his First Vice-President is Frans Timmermans. ==History== ImageSize = width:800 height:auto barincrement:12 PlotArea = top:10 bottom:50 right:130 left:20 AlignBars = late DateFormat = dd/mm/yyyy Period = from:01/01/1955 till:31/12/2016 TimeAxis = orientation:horizontal ScaleMajor = unit:year increment:5 start:1955 ScaleMinor = unit:year increment:1 start:1955 Colors = id:EPP value:oceanblue legend: EPP id:ALDE value:yelloworange legend: ALDE id:PES value:red legend: PES id:EPD value:darkblue legend: EPD Legend = columns:4 left:150 top:24 columnwidth:100 TextData = pos:(20,27) textcolor:black fontsize:M text:"Political parties:" BarData = barset:PM PlotData= width:5 align:left fontsize:S shift:(5,-4) anchor:till barset:PM from: 01/01/1958 till: 30/06/1967 color:EPP text:"Hallstein" fontsize:10 from: 30/06/1967 till: 01/07/1970 color:ALDE text:"Rey" fontsize:10 from: 01/07/1970 till: 01/03/1972 color:EPP text:"Malfatti" fontsize:10 from: 01/03/1972 till: 05/01/1973 color:PES text:"Mansholt" fontsize:10 from: 05/01/1973 till: 05/01/1977 color:EPD text:"Ortoli" fontsize:10 from: 05/01/1977 till: 19/01/1981 color:PES text:"Jenkins" fontsize:10 from: 19/01/1981 till: 06/01/1985 color:ALDE text:"Thorn" fontsize:10 from: 06/01/1985 till: 24/01/1995 color:PES text:"Delors" fontsize:10 from: 24/01/1995 till: 15/03/1999 color:EPP text:"Santer" fontsize:10 from: 15/03/1999 till: 17/09/1999 color:PES text:"Marín (interim)" fontsize:10 from: 17/09/1999 till: 22/11/2004 color:ALDE text:"Prodi" fontsize:10 from: 22/11/2004 till: 01/11/2014 color:EPP text:"Barroso" fontsize:10 from: 01/11/2014 till: 31/12/2015 color:EPP text:"Juncker" fontsize:10 The President of the European Commission was established in 1957 with the European Commission.
