During the recent EU summit, twelve countries (ed.) Called for budget support to build a budget barrier on the border with Belarus, but the head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, rejected this request, arguing that the EU cannot finance new walls in Europe, writes the commentator the “Tagesspiegel” journal Christoph von Marschall.
Von der Leyen has no mood
“It seems that von Leyen has failed the moods” – der German German. He recalled that the Prime Minister of Saxony, Michael Kretschmer, a party comrade of von der Leyen, was in favor of securing the border.

“Ambivalence with the European Parliament, which Morawiecki acted, is a good role model for the European Commission. There is no contradiction in the fact that the EU strongly criticizes PiS in Warsaw with the judiciary reform government, supports this government in protecting the border, “writes Christoph von Marschall in the” Tagesspiegl “conclusion.
