Giorgia Meloni’s mask falls off

On stage not only was the right to safe abortion questioned, but also the right to divorce. The derogatory remarks of Argentine president Javier Milei towards the wife of Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez were so insulting that Spain rightly recalled its ambassador to Buenos Aires for consultations. At the end of the Vox event, insults were hurled at the reporters present.The event shows that the European Conservatives and Reformists (ECR) and Identity and Democracy (ID) parties are intertwined, and celebrate autocrats and fascists from all over the world. The organiser of the event, Santiago Abascal, president of Vox (ECR) called for far-right unity. The most known members of the European Conservatives and Reformists took part, with Giorgia Meloni (Brothers of Italy / ECR), former Polish PM Mateusz Morawiecki Law and Justice (PiS / ECR), together with Identity and Democracy members such as French National Rally party leader Marine Le Pen (RN / ID) and André Ventura (Chega / ID), and Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orbán (Fidesz / Non-Inscrits). The event shows that differentiations between the two far-right political families, ECR and ID, were always purely artificial. They work together exclusively to tear apart the model of Europe we stand for: open, democratic and progressive. They challenge democratic rights, freedom of the press, social rights, and the rights of women and minorities. They are anti-European to the core.
