AfD and Vox met with white nationalists at 'remigration' summit

European far-right parties AfD and Vox participated in a summit alongside a former US border patrol chief and white nationalist leader. The meeting brought together activists previously considered too extreme even by European far-right mainstream parties. The event united representatives of the international far-right movement around the "remigration" agenda.

European far-right parties AfD from Germany and Vox from Spain participated in a so-called remigration summit with Americans whose views have traditionally been too extreme even for populist right-wing movements. The event hosted former US border patrol chief Gregory Bovino and white nationalist leader Jared Taylor, who traveled to support activists recently excluded from mainstream European right-wing politics.

Who were the participants?

Gregory Bovino is a former prominent US border patrol official, while Jared Taylor is known for promoting white nationalism in the United States. The participation of both marks a significant shift in far-right international cooperation, with European and American extremists joining forces.

The remigration summit

The concept of "remigration"—essentially the mass deportation of immigrants and their descendants—has become a central slogan of the European far-right movement. The term gained wider public awareness in Europe after it emerged that members of Germany's AfD participated in a meeting where this idea was discussed. The fact that parties like AfD and Vox now openly meet with white nationalists represents a politically significant signal of radicalization within European far-right politics.
