More of a pact than a party, Euro Right served as a working title for several meetings of representatives of the spanish Fuerza Nueva (FNe), the french Parti des Forces Nouvelles (PFN) and the italian Movimento Sociale Italiano (MSI) from spring 1978 on. They are wholly parties in close up to direct succession of the historic fascist parties and movements of their respective contexts.
The most obvious motive were the first direct EP elections scheduled for june 1979. Spain wasn‘t a member of the European Communities yet but the FNe as one of the francoist successor parties had a long lasting tradition of euro-fascist ideas and transnational networks with its partners. They shared visions of an unified Europe far beyond a common parliament and market.
It was not until 1984 and with the inclusion of the north-irish Ulster Unionist Party (UUP) and the greek Ethniki Politiki Enosis (EPEN) that the Euro-Right could form a group in the EP. At that time the PFN has already been replaced by the french Front National (FN_f). The alliance practically quit after the EP elections in 1989, when the MSI had been excluded in favour of the german Republikaner (REP) and the belgian Vlaams Blok (VB).
