European Commission President von der Leyen concedes mistakes were made during her time as German defence minister as she testifies before a parliamentary inquiry
European Commission President and former German Defense Minister Ursula von der Leyen arrives for a Investigation Committee of the German parliament in Berlin, Germany, February 13, 2020.
Her tenure as defence chief drew mixed reviews, and a parliamentary inquiry has been looking into questions about whether proper procedures were followed in the expensive appointment of outside experts at the ministry. The ministry denied it had sought to evade the payments, and said it had asked for a federal review of filing requirements for six individuals on Sept. 25, before the complaint was filed.
