Several EU members began to treat with concern the head of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen. A number of EU countries believe that the official can strengthen its influence against the background of the crisis in the bloc.

Politico reports. According to the source, along with this concern is associated with the potential expansion of powers of Brussels. “The national capitals fear that European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen will take advantage of the crisis to expand Brussels’ powers in new areas and increase its influence over national governments,” the newspaper said. The EU representatives came to such conclusions against the background of von der Leyen’s intention to present a new EU strategy to strengthen defense capabilities, according to which additional funds can be allocated. According to media reports, the changes may affect budget rules, redistribution of existing funds and possible joint financing. However, not everyone supports such a proposal. Finland and Poland do not want to expand the powers of the EC and note that the military-industrial complex is still largely responsible for the countries themselves.
