The ING2 Special Committee will hold a hearing on Thursday 27 October from 14.30 to 16.30 on "Russian interference in the European Union: the distinct cases of Hungary and Spain". Members will exchange views with experts about interference from Russia in the European Union, looking specifically at two cases: Hungary and Spain.
Hungary and Spain have experienced situations where the Kremlin attempted to influence democratic processes through a coordinated approach, making use of different tools, aiming at influencing the public opinion and sowing chaos by fanning the flames of separatism. The hearing will dive deeper in the Kremlin's tactics and its use of proxies within the EU. Invited experts are:

• Jakub KALENSKÝ, Senior Analyst, Hybrid CoE
• Peter KRÉKO, Director, Political Capital Institute
• Jesús GONZALEZ ALBALAT, Journalist, El Periódico de Catalunya

This document is a compilation of briefings that track the commitments made by the Vice-Presidents and Commissioners to the European Parliament – in their written answers to Parliament’s questions, at their hearings, and, in some cases, in subsequent appearances before Parliament’s committees. The document provides an overview of the state-of-play at the mid-term of the von der Leyen Commission. Since many of these commitments were made, major international crises have shifted some political priorities. The Vice-Presidents’ and Commissioners’ progress on their commitments should be considered in this context.
