If the Von Der Leyen Commission enters the political arena as a rugby player, violates the regulations, it must prepare to make the bundles
In the European Union where the concept of "Democracy" is increasingly estranged from that of a freely expressed popular vote to get closer to that of acceptance by the strong powers, Commission President Von Der Leyen has taken a position that it contrasted with the concepts of democracy in primis and with the European treaties in secundis.
What did V on Der Leyen say? When asked what the Commission would do if there was a government of "Putinians" in Italy, which is out of this world (no political force potentially governing, none, supports Vladimir Putin) he replied: " We will see the result of the vote in Italy, there were also elections in Sweden. If things go in a difficult direction, we have tools, as in the case of Poland and Hungary “. Words that are worse than a political crime, which in any case are, because they are a mistake: Sweden, Poland and Hungary have seen their population vote in a legitimate way, also controlled by international observers, and no one has questioned the results. The resulting governments, or those that are resulting from it, enjoy full popular legitimacy. You may or may not like their politics, but they are NOT illegitimate governments. Among other things, few countries have taken a strongly anti-Russian position like Poland. Despite this, the Von Der Leyen are not good because they do not represent the political power that nominated them: a German-led Catholic-Communist majority with strong green shades. By getting involved politically she must also prepare herself to respond politically and if Italy, Sweden and Spain change majorities then she too must, at some point, prepare to go home.
Among other things, with her words, the President of the Commission has violated the Code ((2018 / C 65/06)) which establishes the guiding principles that must guide the behavior of the members of the Commission: these, in article two point 5, they affirm that " Members respect the dignity of their function and do not act or express themselves, through any means, in such a way as to negatively affect public opinion regarding their independence, their honesty and the dignity of their function". This is an obvious case of expression that has had a negative impact on Public Opinion.
The President of the Commission was then forced to rectify, but now the damage is done and the rectification sounds like half confirmation. His behavior is nothing more than the certification of a political prejudice that runs through the entire commission and that sees its purest expression in the top management, president and vice-presidents. But beware that things are changing in European politics and public opinion and she, by accepting a political role, unequivocally accepts to get involved, and the road is likely to be narrower than one of her sweaters.
