Hungary’s Viktor Orban and Italy’s Matteo Salvini, two of Europe’s most prominent populist leaders, discussed creating a united front of Europe’s anti-immigrant political forces ahead of European Union elections in May.

The two nationalist, anti-immigrant leaders met in Milan on Tuesday and talked about a political alliance at EU level which would “join different energies with a common goal,” and would “exclude the left-wing parties and bring to the fore the identities that our governments represent,” Italian Deputy Premier Salvini said.

Hungarian Prime Minister Orban said he wants to spread his anti-immigrant views within the European People’s Party and is looking ahead to the EU legislative vote. “We want to change a lot of things. We need a new commission and a new parliament that take a definite stance in favor of defending frontiers and stopping migration.”
