Summary

Far-right leaders, including Viktor Orbán and Marine Le Pen, gathered in Madrid for the first summit of the “Patriots for Europe” bloc, praising Donald Trump’s return.

Hosted by Spain’s far-right Vox party, the event focused on anti-immigration rhetoric and opposition to left-wing policies.

Spain’s ruling party condemned the gathering, calling it a “coven of ultras.”

Despite the bloc’s ambitions, major nationalist parties from Italy, Germany, and Poland have refused to join, highlighting divisions within Europe’s far-right movement.
