“ Le Pen’s campaign platform suggests she would override EU decisions she does not believe in, such as imposing tight border controls around France, and giving French citizens preference in labor markets; both those violate the EU’s core principles. It is hard to see how this would not lead to France pulling out of the EU. There are opt-outs on every situation, to not implement EU decisions if it is against France’s interests.”
“ It would have been hard to imagine Germany doing these things and saying these things even two months prior. But what was a significant shift for Germany wasn’t necessarily enough for the rest of the trans-Atlantic community.”
“ Unfortunately, Macron's nearly sole focus on France and Europe's geopolitical position vis-à-vis Russia over the past few months had the unintended consequence of normalizing his opponent Marine Le Pen's long-standing friendly relations with Putin and the Kremlin.”

Apparently the radicalisation of Fidesz hasn't opened up new opportunities for Jobbik in the centre; it just shifted the whole political stage more rightwards.
