From an American perspective, I don't see how you can view large areas of mainland Europe as being "Rightist". Most conservatives in Europe would be considered social democrats in the USA.
Almost all core "Western" liberal democracies have established, and uncontroversial, expansive "leftist" policies when it comes to public services ie transportation, education, health, pension, labour rights etc...
Sure, when it comes to ethnonationalism and migration, there's been a swing of the pendulum to the right, but all the basic policies are still very much "leftist" and gaining further traction when it comes to climate, energy, corporations and tax havens.
