French far right eyes power after election win
The Philippine Star
|July 02, 2024
French far-right National Rally president Jordan Bardella is on the brink of becoming France's new prime minister.
-
PARIS (AFP) – France’s far-right was on Sunday eyeing a historic chance to form a government and claim the post of prime minister after winning the first round of legislative elections with the centrist forces of President Emmanuel Macron coming in only third.
But it remained unclear if the farright National Rally (RN) party of Marine Le Pen would win the absolute majority of seats in the new National Assembly in the July 7 second round. That is what it would need to be certain of taking power and for Le Pen’s protege Jordan Bardella, 28, to become prime minister.
Macron had stunned the nation and baffled even some allies by calling snap polls after the RN trounced his centrist forces in European Parliament elections this month.
