The German government has stated it is not concerned about the political stability of the European Union following the recent motions of no confidence filed against European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen in the European Parliament.
Government spokesman Stefan Kornelius, responding to inquiries from the dts Nachrichtenagentur on Wednesday in Berlin, asserted that while the government is always attentive to developments, it does not believe the proceedings threaten the EU’s stability.
He declined to comment on the motions themselves, emphasizing that the German government generally refrains from commenting on the internal procedures of other parliamentary bodies.
Two parliamentary groups, “Patrioten für Europa” and The Left, have recently submitted separate motions questioning the confidence in the European Commission President. The European Parliament is scheduled to debate and vote on these motions during its plenary session from October 6th to 9th.
