French far-right leader Marine Le Pen has joined Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orbn in a new conservative coalition in the European Parliament. The alliance, dubbed “Patriots for Europe,” is the largest-ever far-right bloc in the parliament’s history. This comes just days after a newly formed leftist coalition defeated Le Pen’s National Rally party in Sunday’s final round of a heated snap parliamentary election in France. Jordan Bardella, who was poised to be the National Rally’s candidate for prime minister, is now president of the new EU far-right bloc. Italy’s far-right leader Matteo Salvini also announced plans to join the alliance, which includes members of Spain’s Vox party.
