Far-Right Leaders Rally in Madrid to Promote Nationalist Agenda

European far-right bloc 'Patriots for Europe' celebrates Trump's return and outlines plans for stronger nationalist policies.

The 'Patriots for Europe' coalition, the third-largest bloc in the European Parliament, held its first summit in Madrid under the slogan 'Make Europe Great Again.'
Key figures included Viktor Orban, Marine Le Pen, Matteo Salvini, and Geert Wilders, who emphasized nationalism, border control, and opposition to EU policies.
Leaders praised Donald Trump's return to power, framing it as an opportunity for closer alignment with his administration's policies.
The coalition criticized EU regulations, immigration policies, and 'wokism,' while promoting their vision of a Europe based on national sovereignty.
Despite its growing influence, the bloc faces internal divisions, with some major far-right parties like Italy's Brothers of Italy and Poland's Law and Justice declining to join.
