French Fifth Republic

The reopening of Notre Dame comes at a difficult political moment for the Elysee tenant, just days after the collapse of the Barnier government. Given the turmoil in Elise, analysts are wondering if the reopening of the cathedral can “save” the French president and even compare this event to the Olympics, which also gave the French capital a lot of glamour.

Macron's option expected to win an absolute majority, as in the previous elections in 2017.
The Parisian "Le Monde" estimates that it is a "nightmare" for the head of state who called on the French to give him clear and convincing support during the campaign, and that Macron is now facing cohabitation and serious difficulties in implementing his policy.

The Ensemble alliance, led by French President Emmanuel Macron, won 25.75% of the vote in the first round of parliamentary elections, gaining 0.09% over the New Ecologic and Social People's Union, led by left-wing leader Jean-Luc Melenchon (25.66%).

The election results so far show that the left-wing coalition led by Jean-Luc Mlenchon has a slight advantage in the number of votes won in the first round of parliamentary elections.

French President Emmanuel Macron's centrist alliance was in danger of falling short of a majority after the first round of parliamentary elections on Sunday saw a surge in support for a new left-wing coalition.

When he appeared in the 2017 elections, he destroyed the French party system. Still, he will run for a second term as a rather unpopular president.

The relief is enormous not only in France, but also in Europe, as well as on the other side of the Atlantic, at a geopolitically critical juncture.

Emmanuel Macron prevailed over the far-right Marine Le Pen - the first President in France to secure a second term in the last 20 years.

Le Pen: I will be the leader in the fight against Macron in the parliamentary elections

France began voting in a presidential runoff election Sunday in a race between between incumbent Emmanuel Macron and far-right politician Marine Le Pen.

Macron is in pole position to win reelection in the country's presidential runoff, yet his lead over Le Pen depends on one major uncertainty: voters who could decide to stay home.

Paris prosecutors are studying a report by the European Union's fraud agency accusing French far-right presidential candidate Marine Le Pen and other members of her nationalist party of misusing public funds while serving in the European Parliament.
