"Notably, we are concerned about the unconditional support by the European Commission you represent, for one of the two parties”, EU staff stated in a three-page letter, which was sent to von der Leyen’s office on Friday (20 October).

The letter has allegedly been sent to EU delegations around the world, including the European Commission’s representation offices. Around 32,000 people are on the EU staff payroll. Close to 850 staff are believed to have already signed the letter.

Dude, It is the German or Austrian coat of arms - at least a version of it.

They don't have double-headed eagles. The profile hosts the eagle from a flag of the Holy Roman Empire https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holy_Roman_Empire#/media/File%3ABanner_of_the_Holy_Roman_Emperor_with_haloes_(1400-1806).svg

Well… why do you think it was called the Holy Roman Empire of German Nation?

And those stars on the Eagle are probably from the European Union.
