The European Commission President Ursula von der Laien will be confronted with a motion of censure next Thursday in the European Parliament, as six European officials revealed to Politico.
The last of a series of challenges faced by the President of the Commission in the first, difficult year of her second term, leads the German politician before MEPs in Strasbourg on Monday, while vote on the motion of censure will take place three days later on Thursday.
It is noted that it is the first time in a decade and now that the leader of the Commission has been facing such a move.
At this stage, the vote is mainly symbolic -the majority of political groups have already stated that it will vote against the motion of censure -but the move demonstrates the growing anger of Brussels against it, after a series of controversial movements and scandals.
If the censure proposal is voted on, it will lead to the resignation of the entire committee and activate the complex process of appointing 27 new European commissioners.
The risk of political turmoil
The President of the European Parliament, Roberta Metsola, has announced the process of the process of the leaders of the political groups on Wednesday night.
The debate on the motion of censure is scheduled for Monday, where the Commission’s president is to be attended, followed by the positions of the European Parliament’s political groups.
The motion of censure against Ursula von der Laienne was submitted by Romanian Right -wing MP Georgen Piperea after gathering several signatures last week and is related to the indignation of the secret messages that his chairman changed with the chief of the Commissioner.
Their hidden conversations were to provide vaccines in Europe during the exacerbation of the coronary pandemic.
Although some members of the European People’s Party, which belongs to Ursula von der Laien, as well as the right -wing European conservative and reformers party withdrew their support for the motion of censure after the pressure they received from their parties, the proposal gathered 72.
Despite the recent political turmoil, with the Socialists and the Liberals accusing von der Layen of being aligned with the far -right to weaken green reforms, the central majority of the EU, who supported her presidency, does not seem to support her.
