The political success of Donald Trump’s “Make America Great Again” movement has caused a similar hope for the same political promotion in Europe, and is called “to make Europe again great.” Like the United States, like Europe, the purpose of exercise is to increase the current liberal order in Europe. It focuses on open borders, open markets, and super -national systems.
The growing connection between the Maga and the Mega conservatives emphasizes the west deeper ideology division, which must affect the world’s landscape. Historically, European internal disputes between capitalism and communism have had a significant impact around the world. This is the same this time. Recent global discussions often have discussions as “west vs.” or “Northern South”, but there are actually more results on the west.

For example, conservatives on the western side are promoting Russian nationalism and share the common basis with Russian President Vladimir Putin, which celebrates traditional Russian culture and value. Similarly, China’s President Xi Jinping’s worldview is rooted in the claims of nationalism and exceptional sins. Ironically, Russia and China are more closely consistent with the western conservatism of nationalism, traditional value, and sovereignty. The meaning of these connections has not yet been seen, but has crossed many fault lines in today’s international system.
However, for now, it is focusing on the west ideology battle. They reached the peak of Trump’s victory in last year’s US election. Europe is currently facing its own issues, such as radioactive drops from the invasion of Ukraine in Russia and the progress of China in the automotive industry.
Trump is directly pressure on European economy and security policies and demands important parts of its territory. His allied ELON MUSK, using his platform X to support the far -right and labeled political parties, is challenging the traditional liberal and central consensus in Europe’s politics. Recently, the mask has been very energetic with the British and German politics. He has begun a tilled to unidentified immigration and crime under the name of respecting cultural diversity.

These external and internal pressure are ready to rebuild the political landscape of Europe this year. Whether this will lead to a “great” Europe remains uncertain, but the change is imminent.
Compared to global competitors, the European Commission chairman of the European Committee quoted its unique social market economy, a robust trade department, and a higher level of living, and Europe was “already great. ]. However, she acknowledges the need for change and says that Europe has long depended on World Trade, inexpensive Russian energy, and the US safety. In order to maintain growth in the next 25 years, Europe must be adapted and to outsource Europe’s competitiveness from Mario Dragi. Von Der Leyen will announce a roadmap this week to implement some of the recommendations of Draghi Report.
Relationships with great countries like Europe, Russia, China, and the United States are no longer concerned about highland policy. It is affected by the public’s emotions on the street.
This week, a variety of European conservative parties have gathered in Brussels and have found a strategy to emulate Trump’s elections and policy success. These political parties lack a unified platform like the Republican Party, but they want to affect elections throughout Europe. They may not form the government independently, but their strength has changed the centralist to the right and weakened the traditional consensus for the far right party.
Overall in Europe, the right -wing exercise is gaining momentum due to voters’ concerns about immigration, economic stagnation, cultural identity, and dissatisfaction with the current political order. The collapse of the German ruling Union and future elections in February 2025 emphasize this urgency. AFD has used traditional political parties with German dissatisfaction and has become a serious candidate in the federal election. Similar trends can be observed in Italy, Poland, and the Netherlands, where the right wing populism is challenging political mainstream.
The European elite saw that their political culture was not clearer than the US political culture. However, the political influence of the United States is becoming more and more popular in Europe. Trump’s Magic Movement promoted European revival and nurtured an unprecedented connection between the Populist forces throughout the Atlantic Ocean.
Trump’s success affects the western ethnic movement and provides a challenging and established political elite model. His strong attitude toward illegal immigrants, the ideology of “awakening”, and globalization resonate with many European leaders. In areas that bet the future in the upper European Union, the desire to regain the public’s identity and political autonomy is growing.
Several factors have contributed to the rise of European rapidly correct movements.
Economic anxiety: The stagnation year, which was deteriorated by the Covid-19 pandemic and the Ukrainian War, led to inflation, housing shortage, and inequality. Rights utilize these issues, promote protectionist policies, and accuse immigrants on economic issues.
Concerns about immigrants: The inflow of immigrants has raised the fear of cultural identity and safety. The far -right leaders have strengthened these concerns and framed immigrants as a threat to state stability.
Cultural evacuation: Globalization and multiculturalism have led to some of the groups of cultural erosion. The radical right is a position as a protection of traditional values for advanced policies.
Duration of establishment: Many voters consider the mainstream political parties to be eliteist. The far -right political parties promise to recover their power and present themselves as an alternative.
Missions of extremist rhetoric: Social media and alternative media have made radical correct ideas more mainstream.
Furse of the EU: Many right -wing groups are the Euro skepticism and challenging EU policy on immigration, climate change, and economic integration. This skepticism threatens collective actions against shared issues.
Similar to the United States, the traditional structure of Western social, political and economic organizations is challenged by European rights. This political change will increase the pressure on the new compact between the elite and the western masses. The results of this internal battle in the western part have a significant impact on India and the world. With the increase in interest in India, Delhi must pay attention to the internal political changes in the United States and Europe and the impact on global economy and geopolitics.
In addition, Indian political parties should play isolated, renewed historical connections with Western political parties, and involved with European and North American emerging forces.
