Röstning i EU-val

Europaparlamentets ledamöter kommer att ställa frågor till EU-kommissionens ordförande i den årliga debatten om tillståndet i Europeiska unionen (SOTEU) i september. Debatten är traditionellt sett det tillfälle då Europaparlamentet får ställa kommissionen till svars för dess resultat under det gångna året och fingranska dess politiska prioriteringar. Denna SOTEU är den sista debatten före EU-valet i juni 2024, så ledamöterna kommer att vara angelägna om att se tillbaka på vad Ursula von der Leyen och hennes kommission har åstadkommit sedan det senaste valet 2019.
