12. Saskia de Vries

My name is Saskia de Vries, and I am a scientific publisher. I have led Amsterdam University Press for 20 years, working primarily in an international context. During that time, I came to realise how important Europe is for the Netherlands: not only for security, but also for the economy, science and the arts.

I have no ambition to join the City Council, but I would like to contribute to ensuring that Volt ends up in the Leiden City Council.
