NIKOLAUS BLOME, COLUMNIST FOR DER SPIEGEL, HAS A GLOOMY VIEW OF THE FUTURE OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT
Nikolas Blome argues that Europhobes, though incapable of governing, still possess the ability to disrupt government functionality. Pro-European parties must transcend traditional left-right divides on issues like climate, social welfare, and the economy to navigate parliamentary challenges, exacerbated by the AfD's strategy of exploiting voter frustration to erode support for European Parliament elections, potentially leading to apathetic majorities devoid of historical consciousness, a tragic scenario that could undermine the very essence of the electoral process.
