A clear signal from the French

As a consequence of the election fiasco, president Emmanuel Macron announced in a Sunday speech that he was disbanding the National Assembly, giving citizens a choice on the parliamentary future. He stressed that this was a serious, hard decision, but above all an act of trust.

The National Unity (RN) under Jordan Bardella definitely won the Europarliament elections in France, reaching 32% of the vote according to BFMTV and RMC forecasts, which is the evidence consequence of this group. The organization supported by Macron ranked second with a score of 15.4%.

Marine Le Pen said the RN was ready to take over if the French trusted them. Le Pen pointed out on social media that French society had sent a very clear signal to the power of Macronists and expressed satisfaction with the "historical" result of the RN in the European elections, suggesting that the current power is falling apart.

We are ready to rebuild the country, we are ready to defend the interests of the French, we are ready to put an end to mass immigration, we are ready to make the purchasing power of the French, we are ready to start reindustrialising the country said Le Pen.

What's incorrect with Macron?

In a comment to the Polish Press Agency, French political scientist Lukas Mack of the Jacques Delors Institute stated that Macron's decision to elect early to the National Assembly was intended to prevent the validity of the ruling camp from being undermined by the utmost right.

Macek estimated that the president's movement, although unexpected, had its logic. Macron wants to explain the political situation and prevent opposition from interpreting the results of the EU elections as evidence of the deficiency of legitimacy of his government for the next 3 years. He recalled that Macron would not be able to run for presidential election in 2027 as he is presently in his second term. Without earlier elections, the National Unity could accuse the ruling people of ignoring citizens' votes. In this way, Macro can save the thought of legitimizing the future government, regardless of its composition.

The political scientist besides noted that the results of parliamentary elections may be akin to the last, with non-cooperative groups. The first circular of elections will be held on 30 June, which means a short electoral run that makes it hard to forecast its results.

Street protests
