Coëme served as minister of defence in the government Martens VIII and IX. In the first cabinet Dehaene, he was promoted to deputy prime minister and served as minister of transport. In 1993, he came under pressure due to the Agusta scandal investigation, which led to his resignation in 1994. He was later rehabilitated, and he currently serves as mayor of Waremme.[2] He is a member of the European Parliament elected in the lists of the Socialist Group[3] and is a member of the 'Commission for Culture, Science and Education', of the 'Subcommittee for Energy' and 'Subcommitee for Cultural Heritage'.[1]
