The Vox party in Spain is recognized as a bridge for communication between right-wingers in Europe and political allies around the world, from Latin America to the MAGA movement in Washington. With the exit of Viktor Orbán from the political scene, Vox is becoming a key player in the global right-wing political arena.
History and Influence of the Vox Party
The Vox party, which entered the Spanish parliament only in 2019, is rapidly increasing its influence. According to forecasts, this party may double its representation in the upcoming Spanish elections scheduled for November 29, becoming a more serious partner in the coalition government led by Alberto Núñez Feijóo.

Vox has expanded its power beyond national borders through an international network that it has quietly built in recent years. Through the D-Senso Foundation, the party has established connections with Latin American leaders such as Javier Milei in Argentina and José Antonio Kast in Chile, as well as influential figures in the MAGA movement in Washington.
Political Strategy and International Collaborations
This party has emphasized its independence from traditional political models in Spain, working to build relationships with other right-wing leaders. Jorge Martín Frías, a member of the European Parliament and director of the D-Senso Foundation, has stated that this movement not only seeks to increase its influence but also helps create a sense of brotherhood among right-wingers across the globe.
Establishing relationships with other right-wing parties in Europe is another goal of Vox. Santiago Abascal, the leader of Vox, is at the forefront of the political group of Patriots in Europe, which includes other right-wing parties such as Fidesz from Hungary and the National Rally from France.
According to Frank Furedi, head of the Initiative for Freedom and Sovereignty in Brussels, the Vox party has surprisingly succeeded in creating a space for cooperation with other political forces. This strategy has allowed Vox to extend its international influence beyond its electoral power.
From Martín Frías's perspective, Latin America is part of a broader network that also includes Washington. He has directly conveyed the party's message to conservative circles in America and has participated in political conferences in Washington and other events.
Ultimately, Vox is becoming a bridge between new right-wingers in Latin America, European right-wingers, and Trumpian right-wingers in the United States. Given the political changes on a global scale, the party is preparing to play a more significant role in the future.
