The extreme right will have an increase in the number of seats in the next elections to the European Parliament – which will be held from June 6 to 9 – according to the most recent polls. However, the two families that bring together the ultra parties arrive at the elections disunited, so their influence in the European Parliament is still up in the air. Uncertainty increased due to the breakup of the Identity and Democracy group with the Alternative for Germany formation – a favorite in that country – due to the comments of its leader in defense of the Nazi SS. Now, Marine Le Pen (National Rally) seeks to ally itself with the other ultra family: the European Conservatives and Reformists, led by the Italian Giorgia Meloni. Can the extreme right gain seats but not influence? This is the main report of the new installment of ARTE Europa Semanal, the informative program produced by Arte that Morning Express broadcasts every week and which can be seen in the video of this news item.
