The Green Front (Italian: Fronte Verde, FV), whose complete name is Green Front – Independent Ecologists (Italian: Fronte Verde – Ecologisti Indipendenti, FVEI), is a green political party in Italy, led by Vincenzo Galizia,[2] a former leader of the "National Youth" (the youth wing of the far-right Tricolour Flame party).[3][4]
The symbol of the party is a stylized archer similar to Robin Hood.[5][6] The name of the Movement's newspaper (RobinHoodPost), too, refers to the legendary heroic outlaw.
The Green Front does not declare itself to be of right-wing nor left-wing: it declares to be inspired "by a spiritual conception of life". The party is in favor of direct democracy, anti-nuclear, anti-capitalist, anti-globalization and the self-determination of the peoples.[7]
The party is "twinned" with the Ecology at the Centre in France.[citation needed]
At the 2008 general election, the party presented its symbol, declaring to run without allying with other parties.[8][better source needed] However, the party's president invited his electors to vote the For the Common Good electoral list,[9][better source needed] led by Stefano Montanari and former senator Fernando Rossi. The list got 0.33% of the vote.[10]
At the 2009 European election, the party stipulated an agreement with the Liberal Democrats of Daniela Melchiorre,[11][better source needed] but the list obtained a mere 0.23% of the vote.[12]
In March 2009, the National Assembly held in Rome changed the party's name into "Green Front – Independent Ecologists" and re-elected unanimously Vincenzo Galizia as National President.[13]
In the 2013 Lazio regional election, the Green Front supported Storace's candidacy for the presidency of the region.[14] The party got 0.07% of the votes, present only in the Frosinone constituency where it took 0.76% while Storace was defeated by the centre-left candidate Zingaretti.[15][16]
At the 2014 European election, the Green Front supported the candidates of the Northern League.[17]
In the 2019 European election, the Green Front supported two candidates of the leftist Green Europe list (Giuliana Farinaro and Elvira Maria Vernengo).[18] After the newspaper Il Foglio reported that Green Europe was supported by a party led by a former far-right politician,[3] Giuseppe Civati suspended his election campaign.[19][20][21]
In the 2020 Marche regional elections, the Green Front entered the civic list Movimento per le Marche, supporting the centre-right coalition presidential candidate Francesco Acquaroli. Acquaroli won the elections, but the list Movimento per le Marche obtained only the 0.9% of the votes.[22]
In the 2024 European election, the Green Front was part of the Freedom coalition.[23][24][25][26][27] The list obtained a mere 1.22%,[28][29][30] without electing any deputies.
