Martin Schulz has said it was time for a “genuine European government” to replace the unelected European Commission.
The parliament’s president said an elected government who would have to answer to the European parliament would “make for more transparent political accountability at the EU level”.
That way, dissatisfied EU citizens could “replace one European government with another through elections”, he wrote in Germany’s Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung newspaper.
Brexit has been blamed on both Mr Schulz and Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker by several members.
The pair have faced multiple resignation calls since the EU referendum over their insistence on pushing for speedy further integration.
