The EAF is dead! Long live the MENL!

The Front National has long been at the centre of pan-European party initiatives, which were always dominated by former FN leader, Jean-Marie Le Pen. The European Alliance for Freedom (EAF) was founded without FN-involvement, however.

Since the 2014 European Parliament elections the EAF has ceased to exist and been replaced by the founding of a new Euro-party, the Movement for a Europe of Nations and Freedom (MENL).
