NOTIFICATION TO THE PRESIDENT OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT

ESTABLISHMENT OF A POLITICAL GROUP PURSUANT TO RULE 33 OF PARLIAMENT’S

RULES OF PROCEDURE

STATEMENT

The Group Patriots for Europe is hereby established.

The purpose of the group will be:

Political declaration entitled 'A Patriotic Manifesto for a European Future'

The Nations of Europe are at a historic juncture. The European Union—once a dream project rooted in a desire for reconciliation after the destruction caused by two world wars and decades of division —has turned against Europeans and now pursues interests contrary to the will of the Nations, Regions and small communities that constitute our European home.

Institutions largely unknown to and removed from European citizens—along with strong globalist forces, unelected bureaucrats, lobbies and interest groups with contempt for the voice of the majority and of popular democracy—are planning to replace the Nations. With what? A European central state.

The elections for the new European Parliament this June were therefore of generational and existential significance. The political fault line today no longer runs between conservatives and liberals or between Right and Left, but between Centralists who herald a new European “superstate”, and Patriots and Sovereigntists who fight to preserve and strengthen the Europe of Nations we cherish. Only through the victory and cooperation of patriotic and sovereigntist parties across the continent we can guarantee our children’s inheritance.

We believe in a Europe

• of strong, proud and independent Nations free in their determination to live and cooperate in concord with each other;
• united through institutions with legitimacy rooted in Nations, mandated by and held accountable to the peoples of Europe;
• sovereign and unwavering in the pursuit of its interests, free from dependencies that obstruct the fulfilment, at home and abroad, of the will of its national communities;
• committed to peace and dialogue, while ready to defend itself against any threat;
• that safeguards and celebrates its European identity, traditions and customs, the fruits of its GrecoRoman and Judeo-Christian heritage;
• that cherishes the inherent diversity among its Nations, their history and way of life, while resisting ultimatums to change according to the fashion of the day;
• that champions real freedoms, fundamental rights and human dignity, while fiercely resisting attempts to limit or redefine these freedoms;
• competitive, productive, efficient and proud of its intellectual, scientific and economic feats as a continent of innovation, excellence and progress;
• determined to protect its borders, to stop illegal migration and to preserve its cultural identity, following the will of the vast majority of European citizens;
• of Nations ready to protect their people against any and all potential threats coming from the political, economic, religious and cultural spheres;
• that respects its own mandate and rules, does not act beyond its competencies, abides by the principle of subsidiarity and proportionality and ceases to justify its attacks on national sovereignty by applying pressure through the European budget;
• of Nations that refuse all further transfers of national sovereignty to the European institutions;
• that respects the veto right of Nations;
• that recognizes diplomacy as a fundamental element of the sovereignty of Member States, and as a matter for each Nation to decide upon freely without committing others to the same course of action.

We, the patriotic forces of Europe, pledge to return the future of our continent to the European people by retaking our institutions and reorienting European policy to serve our Nations and our people. To prioritize sovereignty over federalism, freedom over diktats, and peace: this is the Manifesto of Patriots for Europe.

Priorities of the Group for the 2024-2029 term

• National Governments, mandated by their people and Member States have the right to counter centralization, and have the right to take back lost parts of their sovereignty. Unanimous decision by the Member States remains the cornerstone of the protection of national interests.
• No new competences shall be transferred to the EU Institutions without full consent of the Member States, especially common debt, direct EU taxes and a mandatory Eurozone budget. As the Covid crisis showed, national governments remain the custodians of the peoles’ mandate, and they are the political leaders who are truly accountable to their electorate.
• Every Member State has the right and obligation to protect the EU’s external borders. Illegal immigration must be stopped. The current social and economic crisis that Europe faces stems from the earlier, uncontrolled waves of illegal immigration, therefore the free inflow of migrants to Europe must be stopped.
• European civilisation, its Greco-Roman and Judeo-Christian heritage and national identities are the foundations of a Europe that is united in diversity.
• The Group recognises that global tax cooperation is necessary to prevent harmful practices, but direct taxation must remain a national competence. European taxes are another step towards the construction of a centralised 'superstate' in Europe, to which we are opposed, and will impose an additional burden on European citizens and businesses.
• High energy prices and bureaucratic burdens are driving forces of competitiveness loss leading to deindustrialisation, transfer of jobs outside the EU and carbon leakage. Therefore, we demand appropriate changes in energy and climate policies in order to protect European households and businesses. These policies shall respect and enable strategies of individual Member States, including their right to be energy autonomous.
• We want to strengthen value chains of strategic sectors in the EU, such as medicals, materials, chemicals, construction commodities, automotive, food supply, etc. Openness to technology and innovation shall replace regulatory bans. This concerns all sectors, and includes the need to reverse the ban on combustion engines.
