In Luxembourg, the political landscape sees a steady hold for CSV, while DP loses a seat, LSAP narrowly misses out on a second seat, ADR makes historic gains, and Greens barely maintain their ground.

Europe's far-right parties were winners in many places, coming out on top in France, Italy and Austria, while Germany's AfD came second -- but still ahead of Chancellor Olaf Scholz's SPD party -- and the hard-right also did well in the Netherlands.

It was a disappointing night for the Greens political group, which is on course to lose around 20 EU lawmakers -- in a result that came as little surprise.
