The scheduled hearings of the 26 candidates for membership of the European Commission are unlikely to begin until mid-October.
The new composition of the European Commission with Ursula von der Leyen may start work later than expected. Politico wrote this with reference to European officials.
Two senior European Parliament officials noted that the hearing hours of the 26 candidates for membership of the European Commission are unlikely to begin until mid-October. The start date for the hearing is expected to be October 14.
This means that a final vote on the Commission’s approval may not happen until November, pushing the start date to December.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen will take part in a parliamentary leadership meeting on September 11. However, it is unclear whether she will be able to provide a final list of commissioners at that time. And this is a necessary condition for parliament to start organizing hearings.
It was previously reported that the representative of Latvia, the conservative Valdis Dombrovskis, will be appointed as executive vice president for the issues of “EU enlargement and reconstruction of Ukraine.”
Hungary accused the EC of “instructing Kyiv” to block energy supplies
