Adam Holesch, Piotr Zagórski and Aron Buzogány on support for Ukraine in the EU on LSE’s blog

In a new piece on LSE’s blog, Adam Holesch, Piotr Zagórski and Aron Buzogány find that “war fatigue” regarding Ukraine does not characterize mainstream European parties, but divisions over Russia are becoming increasingly pronounced among the populist radical right.

The piece relies on an analysis of voting patterns in the European Parliament to assess parties’ attitudes on Russia’s war on Ukraine. It finds that mainstream party groups remain consistently supportive of a strong response to Russia. At the same time, the populist radical right showed far greater variation.
