As the second candidate for the 2019 European Parliament election in the Czech Republic,[5] she was elected Member of the European Parliament.[6]
Among her priorities are transparency in negotiations of European Union free trade agreements such as the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) and addressing EU involvement in international arms sales to war zones.[7]
