Le Pen: “National Rally” practically wiped out Macron!
According to Webangah News quoted by Mehr News, according to CBN, after the victory of the far-right party “National Rally” of France in the first phase of the parliamentary elections of this country, the leader of this party, Marine Le Pen mocked Emmanuel Macron, the president of France. He said that the National Rally Party had effectively “erased him.”
The National Rally Party, which is the most well-known right-wing party in France, despite having anti-immigration and critical positions on the European Union, won with 34% of the votes in the first phase of the elections. Macron’s gamble in dissolving the National Assembly and holding early elections backfired with his party coming in third place.
After announcing the results, Le Pen claimed that the National Rally is seeking an “absolute majority in the second stage.”
He claimed: Democracy came to the fore and France preferred the national rally and its allies and practically wiped out Macron’s coalition!
The French politician continued: We need an absolute majority to appoint Jordan Bardella (head of the National Rally Party) as prime minister within a week.
However, Macron called for a “broad coalition” to prevent the National Rally party from opening its doors to the French National Assembly, saying: “In the face of the National Rally It is time for a great union; It means clearly the coalition of Democrats and Republicans for the second stage.
At the same time as the end of the first phase of the parliamentary elections, various French cities witnessed violent scenes. Paris, which hosts the Summer Olympics in just 25 days, has seen fires and broken glass in shops. Also, the barriers that the police had created to keep the protesters away were also set on fire, and riot police have been deployed in the streets of this country.
