Autonomies and Environment Pact
The Autonomies and Environment Pact (Italian: Patto Autonomie e Ambiente, AeA) is a centre-left network of political parties in Italy, aimining to combine regionalism and green politics.[1] Most of its members are part of the European Free Alliance at the European level.[2] AeA was established on 11 November 2019[3] and its president is Roberto Visentin,[4][5] a former leader and senator of Lega Friuli–Lega Nord and founding member of the Pact for Autonomy.
As of June 2023, AeA counted 8 full member parties: Pact for Autonomy (6.2% in the 2023 Friuli-Venezia Giulia regional election), Valdostan Alliance (8.9% in a joint list in the 2020 Valdostan regional election), Piedmont Free Voters, Now Tuscany, Pro Lombardy Independence, United Romagna, Free Sicilians and Slovene Union (SSk).[6]
History[edit]
In late 2023 AV and Mouv' started a merging process into the Valdostan Union (UV).[7][8][9][10] As of early AV was no longer a member of the European Free Alliance, which had been re-joined by the UV,[11] and the AeA stated that UV could inherit AV's "founding member" status, if it joined.[12]
In the 2024 European Parliament election, SSk sided with the South Tyrolean People's Party which itself is allied to the centre-right Forza Italia,[13] while UV decided to not participate in the election citing the electoral system.[14]
