May 31, 2024 | The European elections represent a crucial juncture in the continent’s political landscape, and a potential reshaping of the European Parliament.
French far-right leader Marine Le Pen has suggested that herself and the Italian prime minister, Giorgia Meloni, could join forces in a new alliance.
The potential move threatens European Commission president, Ursula von der Leyen, as centre-left parties warn they would not support her bid for a second term if it entailed the backing of hard-right parties.
The rise of far-right parties poses a challenge to the traditional centre-right and centre-left parties, which have dominated European politics for decades.
Far-right parties could make significant gains, threatening the established order.
These parties have capitalised on populist sentiments fuelled by issues such as immigration, nationalism, and economic discontent.
With voter disillusionment on the rise and populist rhetoric resonating with many, there is a real possibility that far-right parties could seize power in several European countries, reshaping the political landscape for years to come.
