The declaration was made the day after the second round of France’s early legislative election ended badly for Mr. Bardella’s party.
The European Parliament (MEPs) from the RN will become part of a “large group” that will impact the “balance of power in Europe, rejecting the flood of migrants, punitive ecology, and the seizing of our sovereignty,” Mr. Bardella declared in a post-election speech on Sunday night.
“Hope for the tens of millions of citizens in the European nations who value their identity, their sovereignty and their freedom” was what Mr. Bardella stated Patriots for Europe represented on Monday.
He promised to “work together in order” as well.
The Patriots for Europe alliance was announced last month by Andrej Babis, the leader of the populist Czech ANO, Herbert Kickl of the far-right Freedom Party of Austria (FPÖ), and Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban.
According to Mr. Orban, they signed a “patriotic manifesto” that called for “peace, security, and development” as opposed to the “war, migration, and stagnation” that the “Brussels elite” was bringing about.
