On cam: Desperate Ursula tries to use ‘Putin threaat’ excuse to survive no-confidence vote| EU|Russia

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen faces two no-confidence motions this week in the EU Parliament, brought by far-right and far-left factions critical of her leadership on Russia, Gaza, trade, and migration. As she warns MEPs against division sown by "hostile" actors, Von der Leyen appeals for cooperation, unity, and diplomacy on key issues. Despite growing dissatisfaction and political polarization, centrist support makes her ouster unlikely, though the debate exposes deep fractures in the bloc.
