France Faces Political Crossroads as Far-Right Surges in Elections
Macron's snap election gamble backfires, leaving France with an uncertain political future and potential far-right government.
- Marine Le Pen's National Rally leads with 33% of the vote in the first round, followed by the New Popular Front at 28%.
- Macron's centrist alliance trails in third place with 20%, prompting calls for tactical voting to block the far-right.
- The unprecedented high turnout has led to a record number of three-way races in the upcoming second round.
- International leaders express concern over the far-right's rise, with implications for EU stability and relations with Russia.
- Macron's future as president is uncertain as political factions negotiate alliances to prevent a far-right majority.
