Polish Prime Minister Mateusz
Morawiecki used twitter to congratulate Brothers of Italy (FdI)
leader Giorgia Meloni, with her right-wing party looking set to
be the driving force of a big win for the centre right in
Sunday's general election.
Morawiecki's Law and Justice party and FdI are both in the ECR
group in the European Parliament.
Jordan Bardella, a MEP and lead member of Marine Le Pen's
National Rally group, was also among the first toast Meloni's
expected triumph.
"The Italian people have given a lesson of humility to the
European Union which, via the voice of Mrs Von Der Leyen, sought
to impose their vote on them," Bardella said via Twitter.
"No threat of any type can stop democracy: the European people
are raising their heads and taking their destinies in their
hands".
