Czech, Hungarian, Austrian Parties Forming “Patriots of Europe” faction in European Parliament

Andrej Babiš’ ANO party, Viktor Orbán’s Fidesz party and Austria’s far-right FPÖ have officially announced the formation of a joint alliance within the European Parliament that will be called “Patriots of Europe”.

“We have three main priorities that we share and that unite us – defence of sovereignty, the fight against illegal migration and opposition to the Green Deal,” Mr. Babiš said in an official announcement.

Things are not officially until a process is completed. The new Patriots of Europe alliance will need the support of parties from four other European Union states before it can be recognized as an official group in the European Parliament, so there is a road to travel.

According to Radio Prague International, Babis discussed that it is important to strengthen the sovereignty of each member state, for Brussels’ migration policy to change and also stressed the important of the protection of the EU’s external borders to be strengthened.

How this plays out remains to be seen, but stay tuned for more updates as they become available.
