Timmermans was recently presented with an honorary doctorate by Maastricht University. Is this relevant enough to add to the page? See for example also Jimmy_Wales#Honors.2C_awards_and_positions. Talk2chun ( talk) 15:06, 9 February 2015 (UTC)
I came here to find out what Timmermans' opinions are on matters of politics and international affairs. Out of luck - zip, nada. However there is a detailed list of the medals that have been attached to his chest. WP:UNDUE, anyone? This is the EU commissioner, remember, that backed Rajoy in suspending the Catalan Parliament, saying: "Human rights depend on Rule of law" (but not the converse). Timmermans is EU commissioner for both. MrDemeanour ( talk) 16:30, 25 June 2018 (UTC)
Timmersmans, as Commissioner of the EU, said in 2021 that NORDSTREAM 2, has no threat to security in Europe! And today in the program AnneWill he speaks of support for Ukraine, although the years as a minister in the Netherlands and in the EU had taken measures that indirectly led to this war in Ukraine. The Netherlands are on board with the construction of Nordsteam 1 and 2. And as EU Commissioner, he indifferently disregarded Ukrainian, Polish and Baltic concerns. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.117.95.120 ( talk) 01:51, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
The page says that Timmermans has been First Vice President of the Commission since 2014 (Juncker Commission). His bio on the Commission website, however, only lists him as First VP for 2014-2019; since 2019 he is listed as "European Commission Executive Vice-President for the European Green Deal" (so no first VP) - if I recall correctly the VP hierarchy was a bit of an issue during the formation of the von der Leyen Commission in 2019. Should this be changed? JorisEnter ( talk) 11:50, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
