The Party of European Socialists (PES) congratulates Robert Abela and Partit Laburista (PL) on their victory in Malta’s general election. The result sees Maltese voters place their trust once again in progressive leadership committed to fairness, opportunity and social justice.
PES President Stefan Löfven said:
“I warmly congratulate Robert Abela and Partit Laburista on earning the trust of Maltese citizens once again. Securing a fourth consecutive mandate is a remarkable achievement and reflects the confidence people place in progressive leadership.
At a time when many seek to divide our societies, this result shows that citizens continue to place their trust in politics that delivers, protects and brings people together. Across Europe, people are looking for fairness, security and hope for the future.
We look forward to continuing our close cooperation with Partit Laburista in building a stronger, fairer and more social Europe.”
Throughout the campaign, Partit Laburista focused on improving quality of life, supporting families, strengthening workers’ rights and expanding opportunities for young people and first-time buyers, while continuing to invest in a greener and more sustainable future. The election result reflects the continued trust of Maltese citizens in a progressive agenda that combines economic growth, social fairness and long-term stability.
Partit Laburista has been a longstanding and valued member of the PES family, working alongside progressive parties across Europe to promote equality, solidarity, and social justice.
The PES looks forward to continuing its cooperation with PL in addressing the challenges facing Europe and delivering tangible improvements for citizens across the continent.
