Santiago Abascal signs together with Viktor Orbán, Marine Le Pen, Jaroslaw Kaczyński, Georgia Meloni and Matteo Salvini a document to stop the federalist drift of the European Union into a globalist dictatorship.

In Madrid, on July 2, 2021, VOX, The nationalist party of Spain dubbed ‘far-right’ by media’s left wing journos added the party’s name to the joint declaration on the Future of Europe. A minimum document in defence of a Europe that unlike the EU Brussels cult respects the sovereignty, freedom and traditions of the member states.

The statement points out that the European Union needs profound reforms because today, instead of protecting Europe and its heritage, instead of allowing the free development of European nations, it is itself becoming a source of problems, anxiety and uncertainty.

In addition, the signatories point out that all attempts to transform European institutions into bodies that prevail over national constitutional institutions create chaos, undermine the meaning of the treaties, question the fundamental role of the constitutions of the member states, and disputes.

The resulting powers are resolved, in fact, by the brutal imposition of the will of the politically stronger entities over the weaker ones. This destroys the basis for the functioning of the European community as a community of free nations.

The European Union is immersed in a process of profound reform. Last May, and sponsored by the various institutions that make up the Union, the Conference on the Future of Europe began, an initiative that, according to its promoters, seeks to redefine the objectives and structure of the European project in a sense federal. 

On the horizon, the main politicians of the Union envision a new treaty that will expand the powers of the community institutions and their ability to control the sovereignty of the member states.

In the words of the president of VOX, Santiago Abascal, the Conference on the Future of Europe is yet another demonstration of the disconnect between the dictatorial European institutions and the citizens:

‘The conference has already written conclusions. It seeks the forced federalisation of the Union against the true will of the European nations and outside the national parliaments.’

This initiative ‘directly threatens the original European project’ and seeks to impose ‘a model of society increasingly distant from the principles and values that make up the Christian roots and history of Europe.’

Faced with this reality, Abascal and the rest of the signatories call to erect an alternative: ‘We do not want a federal Europe in which all decisions are made in Brussels. 

‘We have to show that millions of Europeans respect, value and want to preserve as something good, and that we are willing to defend, the sovereignty of our nations and parliaments, our governments and our judges, the plurality and variety of our nations.

We must ensure that our borders must be an insurmountable wall for those who enter illegally or do not have the will to respect Western civilization, that there can be no freedom without security and without justice, and that we firmly believe in the person, in life, in the family and in ideological freedom and thinking’.

Among the signatories of the declaration are the president of VOX, Santiago Abascal; the Hungarian Prime Minister and President of Fidesz, Viktor Orbán; President of Pis, Jaroslaw Kaczyński; the president of Rassemblement National, Marine Le Pen; the president of Fratelli d’Italia, Giorgia Meloni; and the president of the League, Matteo Salvini.
