    So,whichever country has strategic interest to Russia. If I was the Bulgaria and Greece, I’d be pissed right now because their countries apparently are both worth spending propaganda money on.

    Thankfully all mainstream right wing parties of Slovenia are pro EU and pro Ukraine (more than some left wing parties), respect abortion rights (which are written in the constitution) and also respect the decision of the constitutional court for the recognition of same sex marriage.

  3. In Estonia, the conservative Isamaa (“Fatherland”) is leading the polls. It’s not as populist as EKRE, but it definitely has more and more populist elements each year.

  4. The percentage for Belgium is wrong. Went and had a look on the website and I think they confused the Flemish votes for the Federal government with the overall votes, Vlaams Belang is still leading (together with NVA which is slightly ahead of it), but the actual number is around 14% from what I can find.

    After April there will be three parties in the Hungarian parliament. All three of them are right-wing populist parties. Of course there are huge differences between the three but they are all labeled as “right-wing populist.”

  6. In Denmark, the populist right is split into three main parties (the Denmark Democrats, the Danish People’s Party and the Citizens’ Party). Combined, they nearly topped the polls in late 2025 and rivalled the ruling Social Democrats. Then Trump started threatening Greenland and their support plunged.

    Poland also has its alt right splintered into three parties: PiS, Konfederacja and KKP, in order of increasing craziness. Combined, they currently poll at around 45-50%.

  7. Poland isn’t on the list but our right-wing parties are 2-4 in polls and will get enough seats in 2027 to form a coalition. Oh, what joy it will be. /s

    Unfortunately, ANO in Czechia has the best PR marketing in the country and they know how to address the average folk. The opposition is completely clueless.

  9. While this map is interesting, some far right parties can form a governing coalition and others can’t. For example Vox isn’t leading the polls in Spain as they are like the third force, but will reach the government if they form a winning coalition with the Popular Party. AFD in Germany, however, even if they “win”, can’t form a coalition because no other party is willing to share the government with them.

    Belgium is not fully correct, this party is only active in Flanders. You cannot vote for it in the French-speaking Wallonia. Far-right parties are not popular at all in Wallonia.

    The “social democrats” in Slovakia are actually right wing populists, and they are 2nd in polls.

  12. Slovenian SDS is “right wing populist”? Well, maybe, in a sense. But you didn’t hear what Resni.ca says.
    And SDS lost elections last time and went to opposition peacefully. Also JanÅ¡a, their “marshal Twito” supreme leader is a dinosaur of Slovenian politics, being one of key people to lead the independence push in 1991.

    So there is that. Also i don’t reckon he is a putinfersteer? This kind of “we need to make friends with putin” is usually the position of the left in Slovenia

  13. In the Czech Republic, the leading party (ANO) is not right-wing, but just populist. Depending on the mood and current needs of its owner (yes, unfortunately, owner), it oscillates between left-wing social, for-eu, center, for-business, for military, for peace, and when it needs the votes of its “coalition partners” or when it is useful, it resorts to anti-migration, anti-EU and even to far-right radicalism. But all he (the owner) cares about is (his and soon to be his) money and his freedom (in the sense of staying out of prison). And he will say anything to get it; he is completely uninterested in ideology.

    ANO simply collects votes from across the spectrum of society, precisely because it has no problem to “be for” or “be anti” to practically anything. And 35% of society listens to him for some reason. The most interesting thing about this is that he is originally Slovak and speaks very poor Czech, so logically the far right should be after him first. However, only in our country can the far right be represented in one party by a half-Japanese man and in the other party by two mentals.

    One of them recently tried to blackmail our president (and lost) and just now embarrassed himself in front of the whole of Europe with his complete ignorance of anything during a discussion with mr. Sikorski. The other considers his greatest achievement to be that he is president of a car club of five people that he founded himself and that he beat a child and a veterinarian in a car race that wasn’t even a race.

    I apologize.

    Here in Hungary a far right populist mafia party has been in the government for 16 years with supermajority in the parliament. But not for long…..

    The Norwegian Progress Party isn’t as far right as most of the parties on the map. They are more economic liberal and less nationalistic than most of these. They have gotten a boost lately cause the centre-right conservatives are in the middle of a leadership change and thus have some voters on the fence. The latest polls suggest the progress party have reached their ceiling and will probably drop from here. In a few weeks my guess is that labour will be the biggest again (as they were a couple of weeks ago)

    The closest party we have in Norway to the right wing parties on the map is the Norwegian democrats currently polling at 0,9%
