In this interview excerpt, Jacques Delors, President of the Commission of the European Communities from 1985 to 1995, suggests that introducing the post of permanent President of the European Council was not necessary in the context of the Community system, but underlines the judicious choice made in appointing the Belgian Herman Van Rompuy to this new post.
