VOICED : Ultraderecha y euroescepticos arrasan en la UE

The video discusses the significant gains made by far-right and Eurosceptic parties in the European elections, causing concern among traditional parties. Angela Merkel suggests job creation as a response. In Germany, a neo-Nazi will enter the European Parliament, and the anti-European party Alternative for Germany is projected to send seven deputies. The rise of populist and far-right parties is notable and troubling, with a need to win back voters, including in France, where the National Front became the leading party. Economic frustration and high unemployment have driven voters to support anti-European and anti-immigration parties. As citizens endure economic crises, governments enforce fiscal austerity, leading to protest votes and a loss of trust in institutions. Despite this, pro-European forces still hold a majority in the European Parliament.
