EFA in government

As of September 2007 no less than six EFA member parties found themselves in government, either alone or as part of a coalition.

This represents a milestone in the development of democratic nationalism and regionalism in European politics and, as Plaid MEP Jill Evans put it "the political map of Europe has changed in the past year."
More than ever before the parties of democratic nationalism and regionalism are setting the agenda in politics and in government. It is also a time of new responsibilities with many parties finding themselves in government for the first time in their history.

Across Europe, EFA parties are showing that growing autonomy and self reliance contributes to the social
and economic well-being of our nations and regions.
