Founding of Renew Europe

20 June 2019

Renew Europe is the liberal and centrist political group in the European Parliament, formed after the European elections of 2019 as the successor to the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe. It brought together the liberal parties of the Alliance with the delegation of French President Emmanuel Macron's party, then called La République En Marche, and other pro-European centrist forces. In 2019 it became the third-largest group in the parliament and was a kingmaker in the choice of Ursula von der Leyen as president of the European Commission. Its members have included politicians from the Netherlands, Spain, Belgium, Romania and many other countries. It suffered losses in the elections of 2024.
