> seeing this kind of hypocrisy of some politicians

No need for hypocrisy. Those of us who see flight shame as a bit silly can fly. Others can not. I assume the same applies for EU politicians.

It is hypocrisy because these trips are official ones, so they are essentially paid by us (the citizens). And these are the bureaucrats telling us to use clean vehicles.

It is not hypocrisy in the sense you state, certainly. It is the governmental one (do as I force you, not as I do with your money).
