Volkswagen shareholders will vote on a proxy proposal to withhold discharge from management for fiscal 2025, citing accountability issues related to the diesel-emissions scandal. The proposal also seeks to block the re-election of chair Hans Dieter Pötsch and reject a settlement for former CEO Martin Winterkorn. Votes are scheduled for the June 18, 2026 annual meeting, with recommendations against the discharge items and the Winterkorn settlement.
