The cup of votes: von der Leyen withstood two votes of no confidence

Why is dissatisfaction with the European Commission growing in Parliament anyway

In June last year, more than 70 MEPs supported the initiative to vote no confidence in von der Leyen in the case of the concealment of information about contracts for the purchase of vaccines against COVID-19. Shortly after, MEPs rejected both resolutions of no confidence in von der Leyen. Later, in September of the same year, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban called on the head of the European Commission to leave his post.
