European Elections: Abstention and Shift to the Right Due to political disaffection and distraction by the Kosovo conflict only 49 % of European voters found the way to the ballot box in the recent elections to the EU-Parliament held between June 10th and 13th. In most countries the voters used the occasion to chastise the Socialist parties in power. The biggest block in the Strasbourg parliament is now the European Popular Party which surpassed for the first time the Party of European Socialists. Good results obtained even the Liberals and especially the Green Parties, while the Communists suffered a major set-back. The next president of the EU-Commission, Romano Prodi, who is preparing to form the new European executive, must now consider the proposals of the Socialist national governments as well as the requests of the Popular majority block in the EU-Parliament. In September the new Commission must face a confidence vote in Strasbourg. eu • strasbourg • european union • elections • parliament
