The president of the European Commission has defined Ribera as an “authentic and devoted” European
The European Parliament has given green light to the Executive of the European Commission proposed by President Ursula von der Leyen with 370 votes in favor, 282 against and 36 abstentions. With the approval of the European Parliament, Teresa Ribera She will be the first vice president of the European Commission.
During her speech, Von der Leyen defined Ribera as a European this Wednesday “authentic and devoted” with whom he hopes to work “always” for the European interest and who will be responsible for Competition and the Clean, Fair and Competitive Transition.
Precisely due to the inclusion of Ribera, former Minister for the Ecological Transition in the Government of Spain, the MEPs of the Spanish Popular Party have voted against the new European Commission despite the fact that they share a political family with Von der Leyen.
Genoa justifies its veto of Ribera in the management of DANA, since it considers that it is mainly responsible for the tragedy due to the information provided by the Júcar Hydrographic Confederation (CHJ) and the State Meteorological Agency (Aemet) to the Generalitat Valenciana . Furthermore, he reproaches her for “disappearing” during the disaster and for being focused on her exam as a European commissioner.
