It has been considered as a “historical day”, that of the past November 13th, when, in Brussels, Marine Le Pen, leader of the French National Front, and Geert Wilders, undisputed head of the Hague–based controversial PVV – Partij voor de Vrijheid (Party For Freedom), which caused a heated debate because of its strong anti–Islamism and its clear–cut stances on a limitation of the immigration flows in the Netherlands, have met to stipulate a strategic alliance among eurosceptic political parties to better approach the European Parliament elections, expected for the next spring.
