The newly elected 720 MEPs will influence European policy in the coming years. Following the elections, the MEPs organized into political groups and held their first plenary session in mid-July. Now, with the initial activities underway, it’s time to evaluate trends and surprises from the elections, the structure of political groups, and the early actions of the new Parliament.
