European Right (1989–1994)
European Parliament political group / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Technical Group of the European Right (French: Groupe technique des droites européennes, abbr. ER) was a far-right[5] political group that operated in the European Parliament between 1989 and 1994. It was led by the neo-fascist National Front of Jean-Marie Le Pen. Its members also were The Republicans and Vlaams Blok. In the aftermath of the 1994 European Parliament election, ER was dissolved due to not obtaining enough seats to continue as a group.
