Europe’s open arms to extreme rightists in 1402

Mehr News Agency, International Group: looking at the entire continent of Europe from north to south and From East to West in 1402, we find that extreme right-wing parties with various slogans such as nostalgic nationalism, populist nationalism, two-fire conservatism with fascist roots and other trends are delighted with their remarkable return to the political scene.

The rise of populist and extremist parties in the political sphere of different countries of the European continent has increased the risk of aggravating crises, especially crises related to immigrants. By taking advantage of livelihood and security issues and problems, they point the tip of the accusation towards the immigrants, so that instead of the incorrect policies and wrong policies of the leaders, they introduce the asylum seekers and immigrants as the root of all the problems of the West.

These anti-immigration slogans and the project of blaming immigrants have paved the way for them to gain power in political elections, and their successes in gaining power and political competitions reveal the growing importance of the aforementioned parties. .

The heavy shadow of the extreme right over Europe 1402

During the past year, various elections were held in some European countries, during which far-right parties or institutions won; The victories were largely due to factors such as public concerns about immigration, the economy and security. Some of these victories took place in countries such as France, Germany, and the Netherlands, and showed that far-right forces in some European countries have been able to increase their influence in the political scene.

The right-wing populist party “For Freedom” led by “Geert Wilders” won an impressive victory in the Dutch parliamentary elections. This party won 37 seats out of 150 seats in the parliament by winning more than 23% of the votes, which was twice as many seats as this party had in the previous period of the parliament.

These victories showed that the far-right trend in Dutch society is expanding and they have been able to expand their base. Wilders and his party in the Netherlands are known for slogans and ideas such as closing the border to asylum seekers, closing mosques and banning the Koran. Leaving the European Union through a referendum is also a part of this party’s program.

The gaining of power of the extreme right in 1402 was the continuation of the popularity of these parties in 1401, which will refer to the gaining of power of the populists during this year.

Sweden had become the host of the Qur’an in 1402, while in 1401 we saw the victory of the rightists in this country. During that election, the right-wing coalition consisting of moderates, liberals, Christian Democrats and Sweden Democrats managed to win 176 seats in the parliament.

At the beginning of October of the same year, in the parliamentary elections of Italy, the most right-wing faction of this country, led by “Georgia Meloni” won. The victory of Fratelli d’Italia (Brothers of Italy), led by Meloni, raised the concern of immigrants and religious and ethnic-racial minorities because this victory party and its leadership adopted anti-immigration positions and demanded the complete closing of borders to immigrants and refugees.

Italy is not the only European country for the emergence of the extreme right in Europe, and it can be considered an extension of the radical movement that the European continent has witnessed in recent years.

Previously, the far-right party “Alternative for Germany” managed to win 10% of the votes in the country’s parliamentary elections, which is an unprecedented victory for the extremists in this country. He was going.

In Spain, since the death of General “Francisco Franco” for the first time in 2017, a small party called “Vox” from the extreme right wing in the political scene And the local elections of Andalucía province won, and 12 representatives from this party were able to take over the seats in the parliament and thus put an end to the absolute authority of the socialists; A party that strongly opposes illegal immigrants.

In France, the “National Front” or “National Community” party headed by “Marine Le Pen” in 1401 was able to win 89 seats in the second round of parliamentary elections. achieved This was one of the few times that the extreme right won this percentage of seats. In the presidential elections of this country, the competition was tight and Macron barely managed to pass Le Pen’s barrier in the second round.

Why the growing popularity of the extreme right and the opposition mechanism of the Union

Since the economic situation in Europe has been challenged, especially after the Ukraine crisis, and the wave of immigration to Europe has increased, far-right parties have gained as much power and popularity. have found These parties, unlike the right, moderate, left and right parties, have a different narrative of how to deal with the economic recession and immigrants, and attribute many of the economic and social problems of their countries to the increase of immigrants.

These slogans have made even the center-right parties want to adopt more restrictive policies for the entry and attraction of immigrants in order not to lose their social base. Therefore, most of the European countries have faced a serious challenge in the issue of accepting immigrants and facing the arrival of immigrants in their country.

On the other hand, this trend is extreme, they promote anti-union policies and, due to their nationalist tendencies, they weaken the convergence process in the European Union. One of the most important issues on which the Europeans have not been able to reach a common policy is the formulation of new laws for accepting immigrants. This challenge of immigrants is so great that a few months ago, “Joseph Borrell”, the head of the European Union’s foreign policy, announced that the inability of European governments to adopt a common immigration policy could weaken this union and even pose a threat to European integration.

The rise in the power of the extreme right, which has caused an increase in racist actions and propaganda, has made the heads of the European Union concerned about its serious security and humanitarian consequences and has forced them to seek solutions. .

Therefore, the heads of Brussels have taken various measures to deal with the extreme right in Europe over the past year, some of these measures include increasing awareness and education in schools, Promoting anti-discrimination laws, intensifying security measures to prevent violence, encouraging political and social participation, promoting intercultural dialogue, etc.

The danger of the far right gaining power and popularity in European society is so serious that some governments have passed laws to isolate and limit their activities, such as in The year 1402 is Germany.

Germany’s high rise to confront the extreme right

The German Ministry of the Interior reported that currently 20,000 crimes and attacks related to the extreme right are registered in Germany every year, and this number is still increasing. The country’s intelligence agencies also say that the police have identified 38,000 people under the title of extreme right, of which 14,000 people have been classified as “potentially aggressive”.

German people’s fear of the extreme right rose when they took to the streets to protest against the disclosure of the contents of a “secret” meeting of the leaders of the right-wing party “Aafd”. (Alternative Party of Germany) were shocked because it was reported that in this meeting, the senior leaders of this party and some influential right-wing figures discussed the idea of ​​”mass expulsion of immigrants” from German soil.

Interior Minister Fizer introduced the German government’s plan containing 13 axes to fight the extreme right, which according to him is the biggest current threat to German society; The plan includes new laws that would open the government’s hands to freeze extremists’ bank accounts and funding models. According to these new laws, even financial donors to these groups will be subject to legal punishment.

Also, the new laws will allow the German government to weaken far-right networks and groups, to more easily prevent their gatherings and even the entry and exit of far-right activists. to stop from German soil in permitted cases.

At the same time, in the new bill of anti-extremist right laws, the German government plans to make the regulations for the ownership and purchase of weapons more stringent and the legal basis for firing those government employees who to be found guilty in the context of such activities.

Although the most serious step to prevent the growth of far-right parties was taken by Germany as the flag bearer of the European Union in 1402, despite the deepening and multifaceted crises. Union, curbing this flow seems out of mind and these measures can only slow down their growth.
