Two gatherings in two European cities with opposing political perspectives. In Barcelona, left-leaning world leaders discussed the threat the growing far right poses to democratic institutions. Their aim? To bring together progressive forces under a single banner to counter right-wing authoritarianism. While in Milan, far-right figures rallied against what they called the tragedy" that has become Europe. They are calling for fewer regulations from Brussels - but tighter controls on security. How will this polarisation play out globally?
