Tap title to read story
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen faced a motion of censure in the European Parliament, spearheaded by the far-right, accusing her of opacity and misuse of power. Von der Leyen vehemently defended her actions, citing attacks from extremist parties and Russian influence. The motion, based on allegations including withheld Pfizer vaccine negotiation texts and bypassing Parliament on defense spending, is unlikely to succeed, requiring a two-thirds majority. The vote is scheduled for Thursday.
