Far-right parties from 12 countries have come together to establish a new bloc in the European Parliament, aiming to become a significant political force. This coalition, named Patriots for Europe, consists of 84 EU lawmakers and is led by a young protégé of Marine Le Pen, Jordan Bardella. The group includes parties from countries such as France, Hungary, Austria, and Italy, among others.
Following recent European elections, there has been a noticeable shift towards the right in the European Parliament, with voters moving away from liberal and environmentalist parties. While mainstream center-right and center-left groups still hold the majority, the formation of Patriots for Europe adds a new dynamic to the political landscape.
