Nah it's pretty much every circle in Europe.

Macron in France and the current German government are centre right. Poland is socially way to the right. Baltics, Scandinavia, Italy, all pretty right wing.

Only Putinistas support what the US is doing with Trump, which is to say, almost no one in Europe.

Macron is not right wing by absolutely any sane definition of the concept. Can’t say anything about the others.
Macron is definitely centre-right...

He's literally a former investment banker who's been trying to dismantle the welfare state, lower taxes, increase business friendliness, etc... He's also been tough on immigration lately. Not sure in what world any of this would be considered leftist policies...
