The European today has its honor in Madrid.
Under the MAGA (Make Europe Great Again) motto, according to the model of the American president’s Maga (Make America Great Again), the leaders of the Eurogroup of Patriots, the third -party European Parliamentary group, with 86 MEPs, meet in a Madrid hotel in Madrid hotel. . The subject of the meeting is the ways of “resistance to the European establishment” of the European People’s Party and the European Socialists who have dominated the European Parliament for decades.
Billionaire Ilon Musk, a close adviser to Donald Trump and allegedly as the “godfather” of the MEGA slogan, has given his blessings to today’s Summit, in the context of another intervention in the European Political Stage – after his full support for the far -right. Germany (AfD), which is expected to come second in the forthcoming parliamentary elections in Germany.
According to the Spanish newspaper El Pais, at today’s Madrid rally, hosted by Santiago Abaskal, leader of the Vox far -right party, the main speech will be spoken by Victor Orban, Prime Minister of Hungary since 2010, according to the program. They make the leaders of small far -right Xenophobic parties of the Czech Republic, Estonia, Poland and Greece, represented by the MEP of Voice of Latin Voice, Aphrodite Latinopoulou.
The Dutch Hert Wilders, leader of the far -right Freedom Party (PVV) who won the 2023 elections and participates in the four -party coalition government, and Matteo Salvini, vice -president of the Italian government and the Italian government and leader, will follow.
The role of the Melon
Salvini’s presence in Madrid demonstrates the rupture of Vox’s Spanish far -right with Italy Prime Minister George Meloni. It should be noted that Meloni, at times Vox’s ardent supporter, did not invite the Spanish party to her party’s youth events last December in Italy. Melloni is different from European far -right and claims a leading role in the EU, as it is the only one of the European leaders to maintain good relations with both Trump and Musk.
It is recalled that it was the only European lead who attended Trump’s swearing -in, but also a delegation of patriots who met with members of the super -conservative Think Tank, Heritage Foundation, in Washington.
Yesterday, the Heritage Foundation, which co -orders Trump’s ideological program, cited the Madrid dinner for the leaders of the patriots. Salvini is one of the most ardent supporters of Ilon Musk and would like Starlink satellites, owned by Musk, to undertake the full satellite coverage of Italy – a proposal, however, that finds the opposite of the entire Italian opposition.
Bardela and double placement for Trump
Patriots are already acting as lobbyists in favor of Musk in the European Parliament. Last September, they proposed Musk as a candidate for the European Award Andrei Zaharov, in favor of protecting human rights and freedom of thought – the award was finally awarded to opposition leaders in Venezuela. Last month, the patriots invited Musk to give a speech to the European Parliament on freedom of expression.
The patriots were formed shortly after the 2024 Eurocrats by parties which, during the term of the European Parliament (2019-2024), participated in the Eurogroup Identity and Democracy (ID). In last June’s elections, these parties garnered more than 19 million votes. The head of patriots in the European Parliament is Zordan Bardella, MEP of Marin Lepen’s French National Coalition, the party that contributes most MEPs (30) to the far -right Eurogroup.
Trump impresses patriots at the speed at which he applies his policy. Bardella expressed his admiration for how quickly the US president expelled Colombian immigrants and sent them back to their country. At the same time, however, he presented Trump as an existential threat to France and Europe. He realizes that possible imposition of US duties on French products will hurt French farmers, voters whom Bardela and his party want on their side and in the context of the “attending” of the French far -right.
