After an eventful 🇪🇺 election with some serious national consequences, such as in 🇫🇷, we discussed the results & implications in a special edition of our #MorningBriefing.  “It’s not only about the unpopularity of the ruling parties, but particularly about discontent in the public about two policies: the support for #Ukraine & #migration”, explained Senior Associate Fellow Josef Janning the strong performance of right-wing parties such as AfD & BSW in Germany. “This is of course a big shock, but not unexpected. (…) It’s really a double earthquake”, said Sylvie Kauffmann | Le Monde regarding the decision of Emmanuel Macron to dissolve the French Assemblée Nationale and to call for snap elections during the ongoing month. “Compared to the expectations, the results have compared and invalidated them. While these were confirmed in the two biggest countries, Germany and France, they were not confirmed in countries like Poland, the Netherlands, the Nordic countries, Spain, even Hungary”, Nathalie Tocci | IAI - Istituto Affari Internazionali summarized the European election results.
