Also, prime ministers in most parliamentary systems.
As you may know European Parliament is not really a Parliament either, as it can neither enact laws nor appoint EU executives, it just approves or rejects Council proposals.
Supposedly, the council should put forward the candidate of the main party in the parliament but this has already been breached once.
But the system is likely to change soon because Von Der Leyen keeps playing with fire with the prerogatives of the position and annoying the council so much that I believe a change is unavoidable.
