Updated results by country as EU citizens elect a new European Parliament
Voters in the 27 countries of the European Union elected 720 lawmakers to the European Parliament for the next five years on Sunday after four days of voting across the bloc delivered a clear shift to the right.
The parliament has for the past five years been governed by a three-group majority of the centre-right European People's Party, centre-left Socialists and Democrats and liberals or Renew Europe. Together they have steered EU policy, which has included the Green Deal and the EU response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and divided between them top jobs at EU institutions.*Not yet declared members are newly elected members not allied to any of the political groups set up in the outgoing parliament. They may later apply to join one of the main parliament groups or choose to remain non-attached.
However, the group expelled Alternative for Germany after the German party's lead candidate, whose aide has been charged with spying for China, said that the Nazi's Waffen SS were “not all criminals”. The ID's opponents have also charged them with serving Russian interests, with calls for the West to stop arming Ukraine.People walk near a sign for the upcoming European elections, at the EU Parliament in Brussels, Belgium May 23, 2024.
