EU: Von der Leyen survives confidence vote

Source: Semafor

“European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen won a no-confidence vote Thursday by a significant margin. Some 360 members of the European Parliament rejected the motion against Von der Leyen, while 175 backed the move. A far-right group of the European Parliament had accused the EU president of engaging in corruption when negotiating access to COVID-19 vaccines, with Hungary’s prime minister joining calls for her to go.” (07/10/25)
