European Union leaders will gather in Brussels later to select their first full-time president and foreign affairs high representative.

The heads of the 27 EU member nations are divided over which candidates to choose, and after-dinner negotiations are expected to last into the night.

Former UK prime minister Tony Blair had been an early favourite for president.

But France and Germany look set to back a less prominent figure, the Belgian Prime Minister Herman van Rompuy.

To be honest I don't think it will be any of the past names mentioned, my money is on them ressurecting Hitler's ghost and asking him, after all he has all the qualities i guess the EU would be looking for in a president-psychotic, evil, etc
