The leaders of Germany, Italy and Belgium have called for a mechanism that would allow European Commission decisions to be suspended, according to a report by Politico.
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever reportedly made the call together. The three leaders also urged the European Union to "significantly accelerate planning and approval procedures," the report said.
The report did not specify the particular European Commission decisions that prompted the call for a suspension mechanism, nor did it detail how such a mechanism might be structured or implemented in practice.
A response from the European Commission regarding the proposal was not addressed in the available report. It remains unclear whether other EU member states have expressed support for the idea.
