The Right-Wing Surge: Reshaping the EU

Governments across Europe are shifting right, with far-right leaders taking power in some countries and center-right parties aligning with right-wing fringes in others. This rightward drift is reshaping Europe and could have profound consequences for the EU, affecting issues such as climate change, parental rights, and immigration policies. The upcoming elections for the European Parliament could further solidify this trend, with conservative parties predicted to make gains. The willingness of traditional conservative parties to cooperate with far-right parties is also increasing, both at the national level and in the European Parliament. However, not all countries are following this trend, as some centrist governments face challenges from the left.
