The charter, also signed by France's Rassemblement National of Marine Le Pen and Austria's far-right FPOE party, added that "the EU is becoming increasingly a tool of radical forces which would like to realise a cultural and religious transformation to arrive at the construction of a Europe without nations".
It said "cooperation among European nations should be based on traditions, respect for the culture and history of European states, respect for Europe's Judaeo-Christian heritage and the common values that unite our nations, and not aiming for their destruction". (ANSA).
