European Commisioner

Leading carmakers including Porsche, Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz stand accused of holding illicit meetings since the 1990s to coordinate vehicle technology, cost, suppliers, markets and strategy. If the allegations prove true they would amount to one of the largest antitrust cases in German economic history.

Prime Minister David Cameron has proposed Britain's ambassador to France as its new European Commissioner, Brussels said Friday, after the previous commissioner stepped down in the wake of the Brexit vote.

Lawmakers backed legislation that will phase out roaming fees across the 28-country European Union by December 2015.
