From Lisbon through Berlin to Warsaw. The populist right is changing Europe

Elections in Poland slightly change the political map of Europe. Only a bit, because the Polish government does not change, and the president does not rule, although it can block the government's actions and determines some important nominations. Earlier in Portugal, the far -right party won, and in Germany AfD gained great support. Pro -Russian politicians rule in Hungary and Slovakia.

Polish presidential election in Warsaw alongside Mateusz Morawiecki was watched by the far -right and pro -Russian recent presidential candidate Romania George Simion. He lost the election, but faith in the victory of Karol Nawrocki filled him with hope for a change that is to be made all over Europe.

– It will be a great victory for Europe and a great victory for Christianity. We are very, very pleased that Poles did not believe in the largest Fake News campaign I've ever seen – said George Simion from the Romanian AUR party.

Right -wing successes in subsequent European cities

Romanians – in repeated elections – did not give him a chance. They focused on a center candidate, but the right – including the extreme and populist one and the one with whom he cooperates Law and Justice – is successful in subsequent European capitals.

– We are happy to cooperate with the Lord to strengthen Visegrad's cooperation. Good luck, Mr. President! – wrote Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, currently the most pro -Russian leader in the European Union. And in the aforementioned Visegrad Group, next to Viktor Orban, the Prime Minister of Slovakia, Rober Fico, sits the pro -region prime minister. Recently – side by side – with a dictator Lukashenko, Vladimir Putin Did the Venezuelan despot Maduro celebrated the day of victory in Moscow and undermined the European insulation of the Kremlin, sitting with Putin for direct conversations.

– Europe needs Russia, and Russia needs Europe. We must pursue cooperation policy, not hate policy and “iron curtains” – pointed out Robert Fico, the Prime Minister of Slovakia.

An alternative to Germany calls for the same. Recently, German counterintelligence has classified this party as an extremist organization that threatens democracy. At the same time, AFD became the largest opposition party in the Bundestag. With the hope of taking over power in the next election.

– We are a party that is recognized abroad, which conducts talks with all parties, including the Trump administration in Washington – said Alice Weidel, AFD leader in February.

The American administration supports extreme forces in Europe

Members of the American administration – more or less directly – support European extreme forces. And these are the most influential and recognizable as Elon Musk or jd vance. The American vice president after a February speech at the Munich Safety Conference by one of the German journalists was called the ambassador of the Global Populists Movement.

– I was surprised that a former European Commissioner – recently on television – he sounded delighted that the Romanian government had just annulled the entire election. He warned that if things did not go according to plan, the same could happen in Germany. These nonchalant statements are shocking American ears – said JD Vance, Vice President of the United States in February.

And for the European extreme right rhetoric and election success Donald Trump They become inspiration and hope.

– Today President Trump said something obvious: a man is a man and a woman is a woman. There are only two sexes. It's time to end this nonsense in the West and all over the world! – we read in the entry of Andrego Ventura, the leader of the Portuguese party “Chega” (enough).

It was on the day of the inauguration of the American president that the leader of the Portuguese, an anti -system party called “quite” wrote. When the first round of presidential elections lasted in Poland, early parliamentary elections were held in Portugal. This party – even considered by some as fascist – became the largest opposition group, and its leader announced that “nothing will be the same as before.”

– There are moments in life when God says: just stop for a moment. I usually listen to God's advice, but not this time. I will not stop until I become the prime minister of Portugal – announced Andre Ventura.

Europe carefully followed the entire process of presidential election in Poland – as another test for populism and extremism. The French are preparing for a similar test, because although the presidential election for less than 2 years, the emotions are already great, and they dream in the Elyseed Palace – and they have chances – extremists from the National Union, i.e. the former national front, whose face and informal leader remains the face and informal leader Marine Le Pen.
