swedish_election_2018_results__58_right_side_400



*Strasbourg/Angelo Marcopolo/- While Noone among the 2 Traditional Groups of Parties can No more Govern Alone the Country (See Infra), a very Large Majority of about 59% of the Swedish People clearly Voted for the Right side of the Political spectrum, in Today's 2018 National Elections, leaving the Outgoing "Socialists" with one of the Worse Results in their long History.


With Only a Minority of about 40% each only, the Traditional "Left" (around the OutGoing "Socialists", etc), and the "Center-Right" (around the in-coming "Moderates", etc), became obviously Unable to form an Independent and Stable Government.


By Winning, for the First Time, about 18 % of the Voters (almost +5% More than before : the Biggest Advance Today), the atypical Rightists of "Swedish Democrats", may obviously become a Decisive Factor for the Shaping of a New Government.


Indeed, Together with the Center-Right "Alliance" of Parties, (led by the "Moderates" : almost 20%, who lost some - 3,5%), the Total of the Right Side of the Political Spectrum approaches a Record High of about 59% of the casted Votes.


Already, according even to Mainstream Press Medias, (such as "Bloomberg", "AFP", etc), the Call launched Tonight by the Leader of the "Swedish Democrats" towards his Collegue, the Leader of the "Moderates", in order to form a Unity of All the Right, despite alleged Hesitations of some, does not seem to be excluded at all from a fair possibility to be realized, in one way or another.


Particularly when Sweden is, Today, surrounded by a Norwegian and Danish "Examples" of various kinds of "Unity of all the Right", while an important Rightist Party participates, nowadays, even in the Finnish Government Coalition, in Addition to the Fact that, even all the EU, was and still is, this Year 2018, currently Chaired by other EU Member Countries with similar, "Unity of the Right" New Governments, such as Bulgaria (during 1- 6/2018) and Austria (from July up to December 2018 included).


Otherwise, Sweden might be Obliged either to go for anOther Election soon, (which might be even More inconclusive than this one, or More Leaning towards the Rightists, given also the Recent Trend of Developments, particularly in the Key Issue of Mass Asylum Seekers/Mass Irregular Migration, mainly through Turkey : See Infra), or seek a Shaky "Refuge" in a kind of "Gro-Ko" between Establisment's big Paties, probably Heading, then, towards a ...Finnish Example, i.e., with the Result to Arrive, Later-on, precisely at another "Unity of the Right" Coalition Government, with the Rightists having been, meanwhile, Strengthened, (as it happened at Helsinki)...


Significantly of the Overall Trend Nowadays, even among the Various Other, comparatively Smaller Political Parties, it's mainly the "Centrists" and the "ChristianDemocrats" who Grow, (more or less +2% More Votes, and +7 or +6 More MPs), while Both put a Stronger Critical Accent vis a vis the Latest Mass Migration, (the Centrists insisting on Cultural and Economic "Integration", while the ChristianDemocrats have just been Attracted by a New Leadership, among their former "Youth" Sector, who seem particularly Sharp in this kind of issues, and, more widely, on Conservative Values). In Addition, it's even a Tiny but New Political Party, "Alternative for Sweden", which was just been Obliged to Split, against their wish, from the Rightists of the "Swedish Democrats", only a few Months ago, being accused to lean even More towards the Right, but mainly formed by the former "Youth" of the "SD", in this case too : They got Only almost 1% this First Time, but they Bypassed another non-represented Grouplet, that of "Feminists", which was much Older than them)...


The Recent new Series of Deadly Islamist Terrorist Attacks, mainly in Germany, but also in France, the UK, the Netherlands etc., will probably accentuate Further, there and elsewhere in Europe, this kind of Collective Socio-Political Trend to Seek how to Protect EU Citizens from such awful and unprecedented Risks.

 

It's true that it's also, at least, 1 Small "Leftist" Party in Sweden which augments, Today, at about +2% its Votes. But it comes at the same moment that, f.ex., in Germany, even a New, atypical "Leftist" Party has reportedly just been Created and Started to evolve, inter alia, also in reaction to Recent Manoeuvers to throw a lot of Mass Asylum Seekers/Irregular Migrants, mainly arriving through Turkey, in areas of Poor Neighbourhoods, with the Double Risk to both create Dangerous "Ghettos", and/or to Hamper the everyday life of some already very Fragile, poor European People condemned to live there.

Speaking exclusively to "EuroFora", the New EU Parliament's President, former Polish Prime Minister, ChristianDemocrat/EPP MEP Jerzy Busek, welcomed proposals by EuroFora about innovative ways for EU Citizens to attend EU debates before important final decisions which affect people's lives.

- "We (EU Parliament) must be transparent", Buzek stressed from the outset.  "We must have clear answers also for delicate questions. If we don't touch a problem, you must know why, and when shall we decide in the nearest future".. "Because "we (EU) must think about Europeans, first of all : They don't understand well what is going on in the EU. So, it's our duty to inform them, to make discussions here more interesting".

"EuroFora" congratulated President Buzek for the anouncement he made, from the 1st day of his election in Strasbourg (on Tuesday, 14 July 2009), on his intention to make  transparent debates, exchanges of views, etc. before the final adoption of decisions in EU Parliament's Plenary, when issues are evolving inside Committees, (See earlier publication).

And we reminded, in this regard, that "EuroFora" has been advocating a project for EU Citizens' active involvement in pluralist EU debates before important EU decisions, since more than a Decade : 1997-2007+

- "Thank you. We (EU Parliament), indeed, have exciting debates", Buzek replied. But, in practice, "without a possibility for our Citizens to see them, not even by the Press, the Radio or TV, etc., because it is in Committees", he regreted.

- "But, they (i.e. Media, Citizens, etc) might interact with you, with MEPs, etc, May be we can imagine something", "EuroFora" proposed.

- "Yes, (but) it needs, a quite new idea", Buzed observed.

- "Why not through some innovations ?", "EuroFora" suggested.

- "Innovation ? That's it. Fantastic  New Information Technologies !", Buzek realized.

- "Precisely, "EuroFora" has such a project, since more than a Decade (1997-2009), to use new technologies for public debates before major EU decisions are taken", we reminded.

- "If you have such proposals, please come to us, come to us. We must" do something, agreed the new EU Parliamen's President.

    This fits with Buzek's main stance, expressed at EU Parliament's plenary earlier this week in Strasbourg, that the European Union must succeed to overcome a "Crisis of Trust" vis a vis EU Citizens. (See previous EuroFora publication).

    For that purpose, obviously information and debates are valuable, but purely instrumental, procedural means which can help focus on, and highlight a substantial content, attractive to EU Citizens, which needs to be determined by other, political, and not mediatic factors.  

    Buzek spoke about the urgent need to overcome the Global Economic Crisis,  the struggle for Human and Civic Rights, Democracy, etc., the Eastern Partnership, links with Russia, strategic partnership with USA and emerging countries, etc.

    But he also used (while speaking both to "EuroFora" and other Media) the expression : "The Europeans", for EU Citizens. This points right towards what several important EU leaders (including French President Sarkozy, German Chancellor Merkel, etc) have started to highlight particularly during the recent years : That there is a vital need, and an historic opportunity, for the development of a European Conscience, to stimulate e renaissance of a European Identity able to attract Popular support, for the EU to become a strong player in a Multopolar World : In other words, the revitalisation of a project for a "Political Europe".

    By a coincidence, this was indirectly but surely reminded, earlier in Strasbourg, by another ... Busek (this time with a "s") :

    Speaking to more than 650 participants from CoE's member countries, at the conclusion of the 2009 Summer University of its Political Schools, Erhard Busek, (with an "s"), former vice-Chancellor of Austria and EU Coordinator for South-Eastern Europe, pointed at the current need to revitalize Europe's "Identity", forged by Greek philosophy and Roman Law, Christian values and Enlightment's ideas, etc. through the ages.     

- "We have almost the same name with Jerzy Buzek (EU Parliament's new President, who is a former Polish Prime Minister), because both our Families come ...from  the same village, located at the Heart of Europe, which was often shared between Poland, Germany and the Czech Republic. But my family emmigrated a long time ago to Austria, while Jerzy Buzek's family remained in Poland", explained f. vice-Chancellor Erhard Busek to "EuroFora".   

 An astonishingly concrete and simple example of European Integration from the grassroots : Starting by EU Citizens, i.e. those "Europeans", that EU Parliament's new President, Jerzy Buzek (this time with a "z"), wants to bring alongside MEP's decision-making proces, (according to "EuroFora"'s main idea : Comp. supra)...
