Spain’s Vox to join Patriots for Europe
Spain's Vox party will join the party group of Patriots for Europe, a new European party alliance, in the European Parliament, Vox leader Santiago Abascal told Spanish news portal La Gaceta on Friday.
Abascal said the new group was aimed to integrate patriotic and sovereignist forces in Europe, which was in line with his party’s goals.
“Patriotic forces have a historic chance to use their mandate from voters in a large group, offering an alternative to the coalition of EPP, the Socialists and the radical left,” the portal quoted a statement by Vox.
PfE “reflects on a new reality, on a message from Europeans that want a radical and urgent change of directions in the EU,” the statement said.
