V4 Divided on Georgian Elections: Poland Condemns, Hungary Backs, Czechia and Slovakia Stay Silent
29 October 2024
The European People’s Party achieved a decisive win in the European Parliament election, solidifying its control over the chamber despite significant advances made by far-right groups throughout the bloc. But how did the elections fare in Central and Eastern Europe?
As the dust settles after the rush of the European Parliament elections, it has become clear that the far-right has made significant gains across Europe, including Central and Eastern Europe. Fidesz and Tisza also dominated in Hungary – where Péter Magyar cemented his emergent position – the ANO party won as expected in Czechia and Boyko Borisov is set to take hold in Bulgaria.
At the same time, however, the centre held its ground. KO won for the first time in a decade in Poland, and the ruling CNR won 53% of the votes in Romania. Defying recent polls, Progressive Slovakia also pipped Robert Fico’s Smer party to victory.
We conducted a survey with our pool of fellows and experts to gather their opinions on the implications of the results. These experts, hailing from various fields including political science, journalism, economics and international relations, provided insightful analyses on how the election outcomes might reshape the political landscape of Central and Eastern Europe.
