Far-right parties from France, Italy and the Netherlands claimed on
Monday that they will create a new anti-EU group in the European
Parliament. If it is formed, it will be the second Eurosceptic grouping
in the parliament.
The new parliamentary group is called “Europe of nations and freedom” and will be formed on an anti-immigration and anti-euro platform. It will unite deputies from the French National Front (FN), Dutch Freedom Party (PVV), the Freedom Party of Austria (FPO), Italy's Northern League and Flemish nationalist group Vlaams Belang, all of which share right-wing ideologies.
The National Front statement said that deputies from other countries are also going to join the new bloc but no further details were given.
"The formation of a group in the European Parliament has succeeded! Great news and an historic moment," PVV leader Geert Wilders said in Twitter, welcoming the foundation of the group.
