Far-right surge in European elections raises concerns about Trump impact
Right-Biased
- The European Parliament elections saw a rise in support for far-right parties.
- Analysts are debating if this trend could be an indicator of potential impact on Trump's political support.
- The results raise questions about the future political landscape in Europe and beyond.
The European Parliament (EP) election, which took place in 2019, saw the Brexit Party led by Farage secure first place while the Conservatives came fifth. This election is crucial as it impacts various issues such as the Ukraine war, mass migration, climate change, and trade. The rise of radical right parties across EU countries, including France and Austria, is reshaping the political landscape within the European Parliament. The split within the mainstream right in the EU is partly attributed to Britain's membership in the EU. Despite its significance, this election often receives little attention, especially in the UK.
