Rise of the far-right: who is responsible? MEPs clash at The Ring

Euronews Portugal4 September 2026 at 15:18

European political attention is focused on the elections in the German state of Saxony-Anhalt, where a possible absolute majority of the far-right could have a significant impact on German politics and worry Europe. The result of these elections is seen as a potentially decisive moment for the country's political future.

MEPs are confronting each other to debate who is responsible for the rise of the far-right in Europe. This dispute reflects the growing tensions within European institutions in the face of the advance of radical right parties in the various member states.

The possibility of an absolute majority of the far-right in Saxony-Anhalt represents a threat to the political balance in Germany and could signal the beginning of a new political crisis at the European level. The consequences of this result could influence the political landscape of the continent in the coming years.

The success of the far-right leader shakes Australia

Pauline Hanson, leader of the Australian far right and founder of the One Nation party, threatens to break the bipartisanship that has prevailed in Australian democracy. At 73 years old and an admirer of Donald Trump, Hanson is preparing for a major electoral leap in the federal elections scheduled for 2028, with polls giving her 30% voting intention, above the Labor Party (in government) and the Coalition (liberals and conservatives), the main traditional forces. It is the first time that a third party surpasses traditional Australian parties in opinion polls.
