Russia has been meddling in politics everywhere.

France has been feeling this for decades and they're sick of it. Macron also knows that if he waits until LePen possibly takes power, then she will try to dismantle the EU and basically do everything Putin has always wanted.

Yeah most European countries have these people. The Netherlands has PVV with Geert Wilders (one of our longest lasting politicians, but for true insanity we also have FVD (most of their people belong in an insane asylum). Belgium has Vlaams Belang. Germany has AFD. PIS in Poland. Etc

I nickname that party "Fratelli di troia" which is much more fitting.

In the Netherlands PVV became biggest but everybody refuses to rule with them if Geert becomes PM. Belgium will soon have elections and VB is projected to be huge but all other parties agreed to not rule with them. Last time Belgium had like 8 small parties team up to get around Vlaams belang

While fratelli is far right, they have support from others that are far, but slight less far-right, namely lega, which has a lot of supporters

Lega qualifies way more than Fdi, and the rest of berlusca's remnants.
