Europeans People Party, large political party within the EU which is largely full of conservative right-wing folks

First the EPP is center-right, not conservative right-wing.

So I guess the context is: If EPP stays in power, that’s good for top-business-people, but bad for everyone else.

Second there's too much leftists' bullshit already in EU member states and all that power vacuum created by key keep such as Angela Merkel leaving governments created all the right conditions for the US, Ukraine and Russia to start a war at the EU border that only benefits the USA and has a large economical impact on the EU.

As far as I can see it, they are conservative-right wing. It's even clear from the first sentence of the Wikipedia article you posted further down:

with Christian-democratic,[4] liberal-conservative,[4] and conservative[5][6] member parties

Second there's too much leftists' bullshit already in EU member states

You mean like those competiveness laws discussed in this post?

that only benefits the USA

Sounds like a conspiracy myth to me. Feel free to elaborate.

I'm sorry, that's not what they identify with...

They do include a LOT of people from doc-dem parties in EU member states. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_People%27s_Party

Not sure if you know how the EU "parties" work but the members aren't directly elected like in other places. They simply have a bunch of chairs that get filled with people from member state parties that applied to be part of that EU level organization. We most likely shouldn't even call them political parties.
