Ursula von der Leyen defended her presidency against a censure motion from the radical right in the European Parliament, emphasizing the threats to democracy posed by extremist parties. She acknowledged concerns from centrist coalition members and refuted accusations regarding her decision-making during the COVID-19 vaccine negotiations. The motion of censure, initiated by Romanian MEP Gheorghe Piperea, is based on claims of lack of transparency and misuse of EU regulations. A vote on her future is scheduled for Thursday.
