This the tenth European election which was held from 6 to 9 June in the 27 Member States of the European Union shows a certain stability in the choice made by the citizens of Europe, who once again gave their votes and their confidence to candidates from the three main political families: centre-right (EPP), centre-left (PES, S&D) and Liberals (ALDE, Renew)). The outgoing coalition formed by these 3 parties retains a majority of 405 seats. As the only majority coalition, it should therefore be renewed for the new legislature.
