He is a former prime minister of Belgium. He has been a member of the European Parliament (MEP) from Belgium since 2009. He was a member of the Belgian Chamber of Representatives from 1985 to 2009. He served as deputy prime minister of Belgium and minister of Budget from 1985 to 1992. He was the prime minister of Belgium from 1999 to 2008.

In 2010, he co-founded the inter-parliamentarian Spinelli Group to support the creation of a European Federation.
