Wenning new UEF Secretary General

The Union of European Federalists (UEF) has elected Christian Wenning as its new Secretary General. He replaces Joan Marc Simon. Wenning joined the German section of the Young European Federalists (JEF) first in 1998 and he held several positions since, such as President of JEF Germany, Board Member of UEF Germany and the European Movement Germany. As Secretary General (honorary position) he oversees the UEF Office and its staff in Brussels and is responsible for the overall coordination of UEF. In his professional life Christian Wenning is Manager for EU Affairs in Brussels. Andrew Duff, President of the UEF, said: “I am delighted to welcome Christian Wenning as the new Secretary-General of UEF. He has a tough act to follow to Joan Marc Simon, who has served the federalist cause exceptionally well over the last, fairly difficult years”.
