Right-wing parties are gaining momentum across Europe, with significant electoral successes and potential shifts in political alliances. In the 2024 European Parliament elections, these parties have seen a surge, leading to new and old alliances being reconsidered in Brussels. Meanwhile, in France, Jordan Bardella, the 28-year-old leader of the National Rally (RN) party, is a prime candidate for Prime Minister, marking a potential historic shift towards far-right leadership in the country. This political landscape is causing a stir within the EU, with debates on how to handle Hungary's EU Presidency amidst the rise of the Patriots for Europe Alliance. These developments signal a potentially transformative period for European politics, with right-wing parties influencing policies and alliances at both national and EU levels.

Jordan Bardella’s political rise as leader of the National Rally (RN) party has been swift. Next week, at just 28, he could become France’s prime minister – and Europe’s youngest for more than 200 years.
