Not surprisingly, that change has fueled demands for more “national sovereignty," which populist parties, such as Greece's newly elected Syriza, have translated into electoral success. All of these parties, whether on the right or the left, place national sovereignty at odds with the so-called “external powers," and seek to tilt the EU's political axis accordingly.
不出所料，上述变化激起了强化“民族主权”的要求，而民粹主义政党，如希腊新当选的激进左翼联盟，已经利用这样的变化取得了选举的成功。无论右翼还是左翼党派都把国家主权与所谓的“外部势力”尖锐对立，并试图扭转欧盟的政治核心轴。正是这种极度简化的观点成为凝聚希腊执政联盟的唯一力量。
