"EU Parliament Limits Far-Right Influence Amid New Session"

Far-right candidates were blocked from securing vice-president positions in the European Parliament as centrist parties coordinated efforts to prevent radical right-wing influence. While the European Conservatives and Reformists group gained two vice-presidencies, newly-formed far-right groups like Patriots for Europe and Europe of Sovereign Nations were excluded. This move, criticized by far-right representatives as undemocratic, aims to maintain stability and prevent anti-European factions from holding significant power.
