Everything about The European Democratic Party totally explained
The
European Democratic Party (EDP) is a
centrist European political party in favour of
European integration. It was initiated on
April 16 2004 and formally founded on
December 9 in
Brussels.
François Bayrou of
France's UDF and
Francesco Rutelli of
Italy's
Democracy is Freedom – Daisy serve as the first two co-presidents.
The EDP was founded in reaction to the rising influence of
eurosceptic parties within European institutions. It drew
pro-European centrist parties from the
European People's Party to form a new centrist multinational bloc.
The reformism is another the principal standard of the party and in fact the PDE assembles center reformists in a transverse way, either if they're of social Christian or social-democratic or a mixture doesn't matter.
Its cofounder
François Bayrou (
UDF) described it as a party for people being
neither conservative nor socialist, like the
United States Democratic Party.
Current Members are:
As of May 2006, Margherita is in government a core member of Prime Minister
Romano Prodi's
Olive Tree federation within
The Union, and the Lithuanian Labour Party is the largest party in the Lithuanian
Seimas.
Cooperation with ELDR
The meeting of the Parliamentary Group of the
liberal European Liberal Democrat and Reform Party which took place in
Brussels on
July 13,
2004 approved a recommendation to unite the ELDR Group and the EDP Group into the
Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe Group. Although their
MEPs currently sit together, these two European political parties remain separate parties.
