Join us as we dive into the first research findings that reveal the real forces reshaping Europe’s political fabric. Why is traditional center-left and center-right losing ground? How are new populist parties gaining momentum across the continent? And what does this mean for the future stability and cohesion of the European Union? Without giving away the key revelations, we explore the deeper trends and patterns behind these dramatic shifts. Find out more in the up-coming Annual Council Meeting from ECFR.
