Following a scandal involving his predecessor, Ilkka Kanerva, Stubb was appointed Minister of Foreign Affairs in 2008. Stubb ran for election to the Finnish Parliament for the first time in 2011 and was elected with the second highest vote count, resulting in Stubb becoming Minister for Europe and Foreign Trade in Jyrki Katainen’s government.

Alexander Stubb announced he would run for the European People’s Party nomination for President of the European Commission in the 2019 European Parliament election in October 2018, but lost to Manfred Weber.

Stubb was appointed Director and Professor of the School of Transnational Governance at the European University Institute when his term at the European Investment Bank expired in January 2020.
