The European Commission, led by Ursula von der Leyen, is facing significant political challenges as it prepares to take office on December 1st.

The approval of six executive vice presidents has sparked division among political groups, particularly within the Socialists.

The agreement between the European People's Party (EPP), Socialists & Democrats (S&D), and Liberals to promote all six vice presidents has fractured the Socialist group, with German, French, Belgian, and Baltic members expressing opposition.

Meanwhile, the Italian Brothers of Italy party has pledged support, while Poland's PiS party remains opposed.

The Greens and the League have also expressed their unwillingness to support the new Commission, citing a shift from a center-left to a center-right coalition.

This political maneuvering highlights the shifting dynamics within the European Parliament, as parties grapple with internal and external pressures.
