The question came up about whether the EU should shift its path after the AfD took Saxony-Anhalt yesterday. Ursula von der Leyen pointed out that the Commission operates under a specific rule regarding these contests. As she stated, "As you know, a golden rule in the Commission is never to comment on national elections and thus also not regional elections."
