The head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, turned off the air conditioners to all employees in the building, except for herself and her entourage. Politico writes about this today, June 26.
A terrible heat has been reigning in western Europe for many days. Because of this, European officials at the headquarters of the European Commission in Brussels reached out from remote work to the office - for the sake of air conditioners. However, today they have been "forcibly" turned off to everyone except the offices on the 13th floor, where the head of the commission, Ursula von der Leyen, and many commissioners work.
As Politico notes, the staff of the European Commission compared this situation with "feudalism" and called it a "disgrace."
The day before in Belgium, the air warmed up to 34.2 degrees, exceeding the previous maximum held since 1976. New daily temperature records have been recorded in the country for several days in a row.
