Leftist leaders gather in Spain to rally against rise of far right
""What we want is to talk and see if we can find a solution to strengthen the democratic process in the world, so that we don't allow any setbacks.""
""Our unity will be our strength.""
""Because when there is a setback, a Hitler happens.""
""Progressives have hailed the result as proof that entrenched populist governments can be defeated at the ballot box.""
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez and Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva will lead a meeting of leftist leaders in Barcelona. The event aims to address the growing threats to democracy posed by far-right forces. Attendees include leaders from South Africa, Mexico, and the European Council. Lula emphasized the meeting's focus on strengthening democratic processes rather than being anti-Trump. The gathering coincides with a far-right leaders' meeting in Milan and follows a significant electoral defeat for Hungary's Viktor Orban, signaling potential shifts in political power.
