PM Orbán: Marine Le Pen, Giorgia Meloni agreement could bring right-wing turn in EU
The right wing can become the second largest group in the European Parliament if winning French and Italian right-wing leaders came to an agreement and Fidesz also joins, PM Orbán told public radio on Friday.
Orbán said Marine Le Pen, who had achieved a strong lead at the French EP election, and Giorgia Meloni, the leader of the right wing in Italy, should come to an agreement.
“If those two can strike a deal and Fidesz joins them, we could set up the second largest group in the European Parliament,” he said. “What’s more, some parties could be brought over from the European People’s Party and then the right wing could easily have the largest parliamentary group within half a year,” he added.
“That’s what we often dream about but then when we wake up we find that the two ladies cannot come to an agreement,” he said.
