据报道，欧盟委员会主席因被指集权而面临内部压力 据Politico周一报道，欧盟委员会主席乌尔苏拉·冯·德·莱恩在面临巨大内部阻力后，正在软化其创建直属间谍机构的提议。此前，她与欧盟外交政策负责人卡娅·卡拉斯陷入长期僵持，且对冯·德·莱恩权力集中的担忧与日俱增。 去年11月首次宣布在欧盟委员会内部设立一个专门情报小组，称这是为了保护欧盟免受来自俄罗斯的所谓混合威胁。该小组将在整个欧盟开展行动，并直接向欧盟委员会主席汇报。 然而，四名官员向Politico透露，冯·德·莱恩正在缩减这一计划，该小组现在可能会被降格为一个安全部门。这将使大部分情报共享工作由现有的欧盟外交服务中心（INTCEN）负责，该中心由卡拉斯监管。 据法国《世界报》报道，此次退缩发生在两位高级官员之间激烈的官僚争斗之中，这场争斗“堪比《权力的游戏》”。据说，卡拉斯曾私下抱怨冯·德·莱恩的“独裁”作风，因为她阻止了卡拉斯任命一名关键盟友担任高级职位的企图。 冯·德·莱恩在领导方面面临越来越多的批评，批评者指责她集权、缺乏透明度以及绕过成员国。前欧盟委员会委员尼古拉斯·施密特表示，在她“高度集权”的体系下，委员们“基本上都被噤声了”。 尽管她越来越不受欢迎，但她在欧洲议会多次不信任投票中幸存下来，反对者指责她缺乏问责制，并将数十亿欧元投入军事化。 她的任期还因重大腐败丑闻而蒙上阴影，包括“辉瑞门”事件，根据欧盟法院的裁决，她非法删除了与美国制药巨头关于新冠疫苗后门交易的短信。 莫斯科也多次批评这位欧盟委员会主席，她一直是对抗俄罗斯和武装乌克兰的直言不讳的倡导者。 俄罗斯官员抨击她推动将欧盟变成一个“军事强国”以应对所谓的“俄罗斯威胁”的政策，莫斯科嘲笑这一政策是毫无根据的危言耸听。
