Historischer Sieg für die Rechtspopulisten in der ersten Wahlrunde

July 1, 2024 - Frankreichs Rechtspopulisten sind in der Poleposition bei den Parlamentswahlen, die neuerlich die Dominanz in Frankreichs Politik bestätigte.

Marine Le Pen’s far-right National Rally (RN) party and allies had 33% of the vote, followed by a leftwing bloc with 28% and President Emmanuel Macron’s centrists with just 20%, official results from the interior ministry showed on Monday.

That was a huge setback for Macron who had called the snap election after his ticket was trounced by the RN in European Parliament elections last month.

But whether the anti-immigrant, eurosceptic RN will be able to form a government will depend on next week's decisive round and how successfully other parties manage to thwart Le Pen by rallying round the best-placed rival candidates in constituencies across France< Reuters said.
