History

edit

In late 2023 AV and Mouv' started a merging process into the Valdostan Union (UV).[7][8][9][10] As of early AV was no longer a member of the European Free Alliance, which had been re-joined by the UV,[11] and the AeA stated that UV could inherit AV's "founding member" status, if it joined.[12]

In the 2024 European Parliament election, SSk sided with the South Tyrolean People's Party which itself is allied to the centre-right Forza Italia,[13] while UV decided to not participate in the election citing the electoral system.[14] United Romagna got a candidate on the Action list.[15]
