DescriptionROME — Luigi Di Maio, leader of the 5Star Movement and Italian deputy prime minister, on Friday announced the creation of a new group "of like-minded people” within the European Parliament ahead of May’s election.

Joining the 5Stars are Croatia’s Zivi Zid (Human Shield), Finland’s liberal Liike Nyt, Greece’s AKKEL (the Agricultural Livestock Party), and Poland’s far-right Kukiz'15.

Its main objective, according to a pamphlet handed to journalists at a press conference, is “to attract movements that don’t feel part of right-wing nationalist parties nor of traditional parties that have been part of the EU Parliament for 20 years and are the cause of the crazy policies that have led to the current fragmentation of Europe.”
