The Telegraph reports on the “rise of the right” in the world

According to RCO News Agency, in a report, the English newspaper mentioned powerful men who have taken control of their countries in recent years in different parts of the world, including Jair Bolsonaro, who is nicknamed the “Trump of the Tropics” and will be the president of Brazil in 2019. got the

According to the Telegraph, like US President-elect Donald Trump, he was a populist prone to outrageous outbursts and had little time for environmental issues.

In El Salvador, “Vice Boquele” was a businessman turned politician. He won the presidency after running a campaign notable for his deft use of social media. The politician and businessman is known for stabilizing his country and turning the murder capital of the world into a safer country than Canada, but his critics point out that Boquele has imprisoned tens of thousands of people and that more than 1 percent of El Salvador’s population is behind bars.

Rodrigo Duterte became the president of the Philippines in 2016. Hindu nationalist Narendra Modi won in 2019.

The Telegraph went on to point to other similar cases in Italy, Spain, Poland and added: “Viktor Orban” is another right-wing nationalist who has been called “Trump before Trump” and is now the darling of American conservatives. He won the third consecutive election in Hungary.

“Boris Johnson” also achieved a decisive victory for the conservatives against Jeremy Corbyn’s Labor Party after promising “Brexit” (England’s exit from the European Union).

America is back

But when Joe Biden sealed his victory in Washington in 2021 with the presidential oath and began to reverse Trump’s policies, it seemed that the world had moved on.

In Germany, Olaf Schultz won the election as a moderate leftist in September 2021. The center-right CDU party went to the opposition for the first time since Angela Merkel came to power in 2005. Also, the vote share of the far-right Alternative for Germany party at the national level decreased by 2%.

In 2019, a year of two general elections in Spain, Socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez embraced the hard left to consolidate his grip on power.

According to the Telegraph, in the same way, in other countries, including Canada, New Zealand and Brazil, people who had less right-wing tendencies took power. Then, in June 2021, during his first foreign trip at the G7 summit, a smiling Biden said that “America is back”.

Gone were the threats to raise tariffs, the sharp criticism of missed NATO defense spending targets and the playing of hard and fast with the rules that had shaped the international rules-based order since World War II.

There was a palpable calm among the likes of French President Emmanuel Macron and, finally, a return to normality after the turbulent and unpredictable years of Trump’s first term.

But behind the scenes in Paris and Brussels, the French president was urging his allies to be ready for another term in the event of Trump’s presidency.

And the paper comes back

Above all, it was clear that the era of the strong man was not over.

Donald Trump made a stunning comeback in November by defeating Kamala Harris, who had replaced Joe Biden as the Democratic nominee, by winning the popular vote.

In Western Europe and the United States, the growth of the right was such that it won 55.7 percent of the average vote share, while the left had 42.3 percent.

This is the biggest gap in vote share since 1990, according to a Telegraph data analysis, and the trend towards the right seems likely to continue.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau tearfully resigned earlier this month, and Pierre Poulliver, a right-wing extremist backed by Elon Musk, is the favorite to replace him as prime minister. Also, in the polls in Israel, the right wing leads the ruling left wing government.

The London print newspaper continued: In November, Trump’s global network of allies and imitators celebrated. Bolsonaro said Trump’s victory represented the “victory of the will of the people over the arrogant designs of elites who despise our values, beliefs and traditions.”

Special guests

Donald Trump’s inauguration is upon us, and clearly, he has broken protocol by inviting foreign leaders and some of the world’s most controversial politicians to his grand banquet, including Italy’s Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, Argentina’s Libertarian President Javier Milli. Viktor Orban and Bokele.

Although some of them won’t be able to be in Washington on this date, they have a lot in common with Trump and each other, including a provocative style, opposition to immigrants and so-called elites, and effective use of social media to connect directly with voters. .

At home, however, the liberal establishment has long derided them as populists of the worst kind.

But as the emerging right gathers to pay tribute to the 47th president of the United States, Trump’s forces will feel that the future is theirs.
