"There is a lot of work ahead as Hungary returns to the European path. But I believe we must also reflect on the lessons learned within the European Union. For example, I believe that the transition to qualified majority voting in foreign policy is an important way to avoid the systemic deadlocks we have seen in the past," she explained.

According to von der Leyen, the European Union should "capitalize on this momentum now."

"We need to move forward on this issue," she added.
