As Europe shifts right, Biden must stand up for Ukraine
NY Post
Nearly 185 million voters in 27 European countries voted last weekend to elect representatives not to their own, national governments but to the European Parliament – the legislative arm of the European Union (EU).
The outcome was dramatic: a decided turn to the right, especially in the bloc’s two biggest member states, France and Germany.
The shift will have consequences for a range of European issues, most significantly the green transition, now likely to be much slower.
But it also has important repercussions for the US, underscoring the need for American global leadership on Ukraine and Russia.
You need a scorecard to track exactly what happened last week as six “groups” – we’d call them parties – competed in 27 national races.
Results are still provisional – it’s a far-flung continent.
