A debate will take place on Monday before a vote on Thursday, Roberta Metsola told top MEPs today.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen will face a no-confidence vote in the European Parliament next Thursday, after a motion tabled by a far-right Romanian MEP cleared the necessary procedural checks.
The initiative, led by Gheorghe Piperea the ECR’s Romanian AUR party, was officially submitted last week with 74 initial signatures. Although several MEPs later withdrew their support, Piperea announced on Wednesday that the motion had gathered 79 signatures, just over the threshold required to trigger parliamentary action.
