1:03 am
a clear less than those up and to not do so. the defeat of the president of the republic. what is your hunch is coalition is clear. the president must admit his defeat without limit med instead, i believe so don't they do not go to the group. the prime minister must leave to know what we need to do. i so not a while, i sort time later, prime minister and gabrielle had told us that he will offer his resignation on monday as well. to night, the political party i've represented during this campaign. he has 3 times more and peas, then one predicted him in last week and just pushed ball measured. so we do not have a majority to that in order to alma, our republican values, want me tomorrow morning. i will submit my resignation to the president of the republic beach. and we're joined now by dw correspondent lisa,
1:04 am
we in paris. where you said we've been sharing for weeks now that the far right was possibly going to win this election. now it looks like they only came in 3rd place . what could possibly explain this huge shift? well david, i think this came as a surprise to many people here in funds. as you said, polls were predicting for the far right to come. first, i think of that number of factors contributed to tonight's result are 1st of all, there were lots of groups that were getting mobilized to prevent the far right from a gaining a power of basically, you know, lots of, of ads that were published. they were groups at that joint forces and try to distribute a flyers on the ground trying to hold those candidates opposed to the far right. and obviously there's also the so called a republican front policies, a non, you know, not the far right, but all the other parties saying, we need to prevent this from happening. and some of the candidates about 200
1:05 am
candidates, withdrew from the 2nd round of faith. and now this is a business due to the specifics of the french election systems. and the system in the legislative election is a direct election in 577 districts. and a candidates can get through to the 2nd round if they get the support of at least 12.5 percent of registered betas. and the result of that is that in many of the districts, there was more than 2 candidates. and so as i said, and many districts, but such place candidates withdrew and that helped the candidate that was facing a big fall right candidate to get through very powerfully say tonight. and that's why the, that explains at least partly to nights result width of the far right now coming in 3rd and not in 1st place as expected projections show that no group, no party has an absolute majority. how difficult will it be now though,
1:06 am
for friends to form a government? or i think it will be incredibly difficult. fonts has not really known, doesn't have any, a huge experience of forming correlations on like a neighboring countries such as a germany and in the cost, you know, you had a few occasions where there was a so called core be to show which means basically the prime minister and the president, i'm not from the same political come that didn't go down. that wall actually didn't block off that well. now to night though, lots of of positions will be thinking about who might be the next prime minister. we just saw it, the prime minister going to that type is going to submit his resignation a tomorrow. now he should stay in place as a cash hiker or you know, catch, take a prime minister, move his car, take a government, and until a new government will be formed. and there is going to be lots of taking and praying about who will be the new prime minister. we thought that the left wing,
1:07 am
the lines, the new republic in front of the new popular front will come together tomorrow they sit around a table and think about who could they, you know, put forward as a name for president my call to name as a new fine minister, we were so i may be watching that situation. now, at least when president my client called the snap elections. it was a huge gamble for him. and for france, how's that gamble paid off a while? i think when he called these elections, he's thoughts. so it means that this was a genius idea and would take everybody by surprise. everybody was surprised. but i think many very few people like she thought that this was a good idea and turns out that he actually lost seats in parliament. the damage is limited to lied and yet he now would have to have it to face even more difficult. situation impala and you obviously speculated was speculating that he would enlarge

his, you know, the number of seats he used to have 250. now this a number is going to go down at, but no other. com will have an absolute majority of 2 and a may to 9, so it's likely to be a hung parliament you do have to wiggles through. he said that he would not step down before the next presidential election, which is going to be in 2027. but inside of me, certainly not be easy for me to, to double your correspondent lease salary for us in paris. thank you. hey, how much official has said the group is ready to discuss a deal to secure the release of as rarely hostages, even without a complete ceasefire. the potential breakthrough comes after weeks of deadlock between the 2 sides. it's 9 months since the terror attack by how mos on october 7th, with families of hostages, still waiting desperately for news of a deal. a warning viewers may find images in this next report,
