EU Parliament elections reach their climax as the last 21 nations go to the polls on Sunday

Romanians wave a large EU flag during a 2020 USR PLUS alliance European Parliament elections rally, in Bucharest, Romania, on May 24, 2019.

Leading the challenge to the established order is Italy's hard-line interior minister, Matteo Salvini, head of the League party, who is assembling a group of like-minded parties from across Europe."We need to do everything that is right to free this country, this continent, from the illegal occupation organized by Brussels," Salvini told a rally in Milan last weekend that was attended by the leaders of 11 nationalist parties.

Proponents of stronger EU integration, led by French President Emmanuel Macron , argue that issues like climate change and reining in immigration are simply too big for any one country to tackle alone.
