The Greens/European Free Alliance (Greens/EFA) is a political group of the European Parliament composed primarily of green political parties.[1][2][3]
The group consists of European Green Party (EGP), part of the European Free Alliance (EFA), and members of Volt Europa and European Pirate Party political alliances.
History
Formed following the 1999 European elections for the 5th European Parliament, the group has generally limited its membership to progressive parties.[4] These European parties are joined by MEPs from non-aligned national parties, which have included the Dutch Europe Transparent (2004–2009) and the Swedish (2009–2014), German (2014–) and Czech (2019–) Pirate Parties.[5]
9th European Parliament
On 9 June 2019, following a pan-European vote of party members, Volt Europa chose to join the Greens–European Free Alliance group in the European Parliament.[6][7]
10th European Parliament
On 19 June 2024, the group elected Bas Eickhout, and re-elected Terry Reintke, as Co-Presidents of the group.[8] On 25 June, the group elected the members of its bureau.[9]
