The top of the list of the National Assembly is in Rome this Friday, March 29th. The young protégé of Marine Le Pen, Jordan Bardella, that the polls place in the neck with the list LaREM for the Europeans, comes to take part in a meeting of the extreme right of the continent. Announced for several weeks, Matteo Salvini could actually decline the invitation, an additional sign of unease that takes hold with future alliances in the European Parliament in the background.

The event was announced with great fanfare by Jordan Bardella. The head of the European NR list was looking forward to bringing together the youth branches of the continent's nationalist parties and meeting with his mentor, Matteo Salvini.

But at a few hours of the appointment of this Friday, the poster is a little less selling: there will certainly be the Italian League, the young people of the German AFD and the Austrian FPO however, more than United Russia, more than Polish PIS, and perhaps more than Matteo Salvini. The strong man of Italian politics, Minister of the Interior could be held back by " agenda issues ".

No panic tempers the RN, Matteo Salvini and the National Rally is solid. " We agree on everything " wants to believe Marine Le Pen , who recalls that the meeting of this Friday is only a meeting of " young " and who sweeps away the disagreements that emerge on the alliances coming after May 26th.

In recent months, Matteo Salvini has been meeting possible future allies in Poland or Hungary whose ruling parties are refusing, for the time being, to sit with the NR in the European Parliament. Will Matteo Salvini show up with Jordan Bardella this Friday? Answer at the beginning of the afternoon.
