Following the outstanding electoral success of Vox in the Spanish local and regional elections, ECR Group Co-Chairmen Prof Ryszard Legutko (Poland) and Nicola Procaccini (Italy) congratulated their partner party and its leader Santiago Abascal.

Prof Legutko said:

“We congratulate our friends from Vox and their leader Santiago Abascal who’ve done an outstanding job, doubling their share of votes in this election. The conservative movement continues to grow and gain confidence, also at the local level. Across Europe, conservatives are becoming the decisive political force, as citizens no longer have confidence in ideological social experiments of the left.”

Nicola Procaccini added:

“Even in Spain, as in much of Europe, a strong centre-right wind is blowing while we face important choices for the future. Congratulations to our Vox friends, who continue to grow and strengthen the European Conservative project. Together we will also win in Brussels.”
