Last week, the Polish ALDE member party Nowoczesna announced that it will join the European Coalition for the European Parliament elections in May. In addition to Nowoczesna, the Coalition consists of the opposition parties PO, SLD, Zielonymi and Teraz.

Speaking of the announcement, party leader Katarzyna Lubnauer stressed the importance of the European Parliament to have a strong representation of pro-European politicians.

“We are convinced that such a coalition has a chance to win in this election and bring hope for the Polish,” emphasized Lubnauer.
