EU Commission Pres. von der Leyen Breached Transparency Rules on Vaccine Deals

1351 sats \ 19 comments \ @TomK 17 Jul news

The European Court of Justice has ruled that EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen violated European law by maintaining excessive secrecy around mRNA vaccine contracts.

Von der Leyen, whose husband Heiko von der Leyen is a director at Orgenesis (a company owned by Pfizer), signed a €71 billion contract with Pfizer for 4.6 billion vaccine doses—equivalent to 10 doses per EU citizen.

This ruling casts a spotlight on the ethics and transparency of the EU's leadership and decision-making processes.

It is precisely this process that makes von der Leyen the ideal president of the EU Commie Clown Commission.

We are the masters of camouflage. We always play the communists, but we are ice-cold market economists who execute the rules of the Austrian school. It will be a lesson for you to see what happens when we pass everyone by economically. Nothing is more important to us than the sovereignty of the individual, transparency and the minimal state

Just political consequences, though? Massive violations of EU law don't come with a prison sentence?

of course not. important posts such as the president of the central bank are protected by immunity.

You have to understand who this person is. In every position there was a scandal and no consequences. The people say that merkel want to get rid of her and that is why she got the eu job. The last affair before the pfizer deal was as she has been german defense minister. It was the berateraffäre when she spend millions for consulting and malversating money. She was even hiring her own family members and partners. Read this wikipedia mainstream propaganda and think, read and ask yourself a few questions. Then search for the answers if you are interested.

In 2005, she joined the federal cabinet, first as minister of family affairs and youth from 2005 to 2009, then as minister of labour and social affairs from 2009 to 2013, and finally as minister of defence from 2013 to 2019, the first woman to serve as German defence minister.[1] When she left office she was the only minister to have served continuously in Merkel's cabinet since Merkel became chancellor. She served as a deputy leader of the CDU from 2010 to 2019, and was regarded as a leading contender to succeed Merkel as chancellor of Germany and as the favourite to become secretary general of NATO after Jens Stoltenberg. British defence secretary Michael Fallon described her in 2019 as "a star presence" in the NATO community and "the doyenne of NATO ministers for over five years".[2] In 2023, she was again regarded as the favourite to take the role.[3]

On 2 July 2019, von der Leyen was proposed by the European Council as the candidate for president of the European Commission.[4][5] She was then elected by the European Parliament on 16 July;[6][a] she took office on 1 December, becoming the first woman to hold the office. In November 2022 von der Leyen announced that her Commission would work to establish an International Criminal Tribunal for the Russian Federation.[8] She was named the most powerful woman in the world by Forbes in 2022 and 2023

10 though. Those are huge numbers, especially after pfizers scandal lately. The rich get greedier and greedier.

please be sure to differentiate here: it is not the rich, the rich of the private economy, it is functionaries and corrupt people who have pandered to the political system and are enriching themselves at the expense of the middle class. we want free competition, we want free pricing on free markets as libertarians.
