Far-right Party on the Verge of Political Power in France

Following surprising European Union election results, French President Macron has called for new national elections, opening the possibility of the far-right National Rally Party taking political control in France. The party garnered significant support in the EU elections, raising concerns about the changing political landscape and potential impacts on the upcoming French elections. Macron faces challenges with a decline in popularity due to controversial policies, while issues like immigration and security contribute to the far-right's growing appeal. The prospect of extreme positions dominating the elections signals a shift in perceptions of political extremism in France.
