No, I'd say a nationalist will be probably against the EU, but if you are against the EU you are not necessarily a nationalist or right-wing.

But I would say that a nationalist is by definition more right-wing than left-wing?
And nationalists are usually for their country alone, and against international above-state oganisations that might meddle or interfere with their nation's 'isolated' laws. Like denying standard basic pay for workers, scientific exchange, and at least looking at other opinions.
Example being Hungary, or Poland who gladly take the money from the EU, but do not necessarily accept democratic or ethical concepts.
I guess it is hard to blare against the EU 24/7 but conceal advantages, bit it worked with brexit and we and they will see where the advantages are, or not.
You could argue that the EU is only a trading organisation, but after the old EG which indeed was only about trade, it is now much more.
