Diplomatic sources indicate that criticism of Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, and Callas, head of EU foreign policy, has intensified in Brussels.
Some diplomats have compared their rivalry to a “Game of Thrones” conflict, noting a significant struggle over the management of the European Union’s foreign policy direction.
The reports highlight growing dissatisfaction with Callas for allegedly prioritizing Ukraine while neglecting critical developments in the Middle East.
Additionally, von der Leyen is accused of attempting to expand her influence within EU foreign affairs beyond her designated role, which has reportedly weakened Callas’ position.
The European Union is reportedly considering reforms to its foreign policy departments that could limit Callas’ authority.
