Jacques Santer
In 1995 Jacques Santer became president of the European Commission, the executive body of the European Union (EU). Santer served until 1999 when, along with the rest of the commission, he resigned in protest of a report issued by the European Parliament accusing some commission members of corruption and poor oversight.
