Germany is arguing about the victory of the local-level right-wing AfD party at the Tiringia Lat, but throughout Europe they are winning far-right or extreme right-wing populist parties.

It looked like Spain was the last bastion in Europe on the left, but he also fell a month ago. In Spain's municipal and regional elections, Pedro Sanchez's left government was sentenced to vote, as a result the Spanish prime minister called for early elections to be held. The winner's smile has now gone to the conservative popular party, The PP, with its new image, gives Isabel Diaz Ayso from Madrid, who mocks feminism, equality, minority protection, the rights of trans-persons and climate protection.

But the increase is also marking the extremist rightist Vox party, which in many autonomous municipalities and regions in the future is expected to co-go. To those who congratulated the Vox party not by chance among the first was Victor Orban.

Hungary: “doli” Orban

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban offered the model for the right twist. In April of last year, he secured the fourth mandate, although the opposition had joined and thought, that there were chances of a breach of power. Orban and his right-wing national party, Fidesz, under the Russian model, declared “liberal democracy”. Tonets against foreigners are a normal part of the government programme. The constant opposition to accepting refugees, Orban argues with him, that Hungarians “do not want to become a mixed race” and that European multicultural states “are no longer nations”.

France: Let Pen be more cautious

After Orban's victory was the first Marine Le Pen to congratulate the Hungarian prime minister. Her party, “National Resemblement”, arrived in the 14-fold parliamentary elections. Without any effort Le Pen pursues her plan to enter the Élysée Palace as president. The next step it aims at is victory in European elections in 2024, which no longer seems impossible, because for 10 years many French and French people have voted highly right.

Italy: Mellon and Mussolini

Giorgia Melon did not need to wait that long. Its radical rightist party, rooted in fascism “Frateli d” from the insignificant party, managed to climb the electorate and place Melon in the post of prime minister of Italy. In the party's emblem still stands the green-and-white flame, which for the Italian right symbolically stands for eternal flame in Mussolini's tomb. And by the way... for Giorgia Melon, Mussolini “is a complex personality that needs to be seen in context”, says Mellon, that her political career began in the organization of Neofashist youth.

Sweden: Poppulists Second Power

Jimmie ⇩kesson, leader of the right-wing populist party, the Swedish Democrats passed through a long road to the hard right twist, as at its political beginnings he was considered moderate. Today, Donald Trump style that “will remake Suedine”. In parliamentary elections last year, the Suedez Democratic Party, which was founded in 1988 by rightist Swedish extremists, became the second political force.

Since then, this party with anti-immigrant and Islam policy regularly puts the centre-right coalition government under pressure. Muslims are the “biggest threat to Sweden since World War II”.

Finland: “Finnishers First”

Right-wing populists have also echoed in Finland- In this country the true “Finnish party” succeeded in a coalition with four parties entering the government. The populist party secured seven positions, and its chairman, Riika Purra, even assumed the post of finance minister.

This politician who previously voted for the Green will now turn Finland “back on the right track”, changing the migration paradigm to the quota of up to 500 migrants.

While Purra is very soft compared to Marian Kotleba, the leader of the Slovak Neofashist party, L'SNS. This politician who promotes hatred against Roma, Jews and homosexuals in 2022 was sentenced on bail because “promoted a dangerous ideology for democracy” and had to surrender the parliamentary mandate. But that did not prevent his party's success. In parliamentary elections in 2020, the Slovak party managed to take 17 seats in parliament. From the early elections in September, LʹSNS expects even to receive more deputies.

Greece: Massive right turn

In Greece, conservative Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis won the elections Sunday (25.06) but the success of ultra-right parties makes sense that Greece has taken a strong political turn right. Greek populist Party, “Eliniki Lysi”, Greek Solution, ultranationalist and ultrareligious party “Niki”, victory and party “Spartans” -- the successor of the banned “GoldenAgim” -- have entered parliament and jointly occupied 13% of the countries.
