The greater influence of the right-wing and far-right parties in the European Parliament speaks of more difficult procedures for adopting certain decisions because they will want a seat at the table
The results of the European elections and the growing influence of Meloni. The far-right camp is the third strongest group in the European Parliament, but cracks are visible in it due to the lack of united positions on key issues. Meloni is looking for pragmatic cooperation on some issues with the centrist parties, but they also need to lend a hand. What will happen on the French elections?
Purely mathematically the EPP, Socialists and Liberals have the majority – over 400 votes in the EP, the majority of 361 votes should be easy to get, Meloni is not needed
Whether the centrist consensus will prevail in the new European Parliament and manage to re-elect Ursula von der Leyen? What role will Meloni play in the new EP?
Parties on the far right cannot achieve the same level of cohesion as the more central parties
