Politiske partier - også europæiske politiske partier - Europa-Parlamentet som den eneste EU-institution valgt direkte af de europæiske borgere, af borgernes repræsentanter har en vigtig rolle at spille. De er alle en vigtig del af det europæiske projekt.
There are important roles to be played by parties - including European parties - by the European Parliament as the only EU institution directly elected by the European public, by the citizens' representatives, all of which are an important part of the European project.
