on the, there's a deed on the news line from berlin, a snap election in france that could dramatically alter the political landscape. not on the crumbs centrist space, a populous challenge from the far right and national riley, which could win a majority in parliament for the 1st time. also coming up taliban officials joined the un conference on the future of afghanistan's rights groups criticized and presence, the gathering in door using the tyler brand decided bundle of widespread rights abuse is the

antonio radical welcome to the program. voters in france going to the poles to choose a new polymer and present the amount of micro i'll call the snap ballot following his parties. disastrous performance in the european elections earlier this month. it's a big gamble for the french lead to the fall rights. national riley could not win an absolute majority in the national assembly. the same thing. she's the face of the french bar right now, the pen, the one who's made the modern national riley party. what it is, but this is their party's top candidates, 28 year old joe down by the law, who could become frances 1st far right? prime minister, in modern times, a national riley has surged in the polls on an anti immigration platform and also promises to cut taxes and repeal president my calls controversial pension reforms was fine for you guys. such will be or getting poor under looking for stronger purchasing power. well,

a better quality of life. so if the national raleigh promise has done these things and then why not football? then what time? see, i'm a big scared of this national dream for them on this and that lloyd. so they have good ideas. but i'm really scared mostly because i think i get quite resourced. and that's something i don't tolerate and was us and we persians to pop, to other blogs, are buying for power. one of them is the centrist alliance spearheaded by president my call. his supporters hope is gamble on an early election, pays off apple store. it's important to try to get back to some kind of variety, to at least what they can see their normal as i said. so maybe not everybody does it us to, to try to block extremism. nowadays, when need be no war at war, we would like to escape all of these every establish border and have a kind of our situation. and the 3rd choice is the new popular front coalition

that includes far left candidates seizing on mac homes on popularity. the campaign was a short one. nicole and called the snap elections and a surprise announcement just 3 weeks ago after the far right make gains in european elections. several polls have shown that the national riley has only continued its rise since then. a victory for them could lead to a centrist president, my call sharing power with a far right. prime minister, france is in suspense, and relief is still a ways off. the winners and losers will only be decided after a 2nd round of voting on july 7th. so one of the major issues on the minds of votes as in france, here's our power as correspondent sonya vondik hall with pharmacy. the number one issue here is really where the, the, the far, right, national rodney, which is spend to use and the money and up and clank. the shade it's extreme is image whether that party will inform the next government in fonts. that is the biggest concern here i've been speaking to both of here at this building station in

central virus. and people have really expressed a real sense of anxiety about the far right, you know, potentially taking over and what that could mean for, you know, the open when can we cultural of virus. but of course, it's a very different picture away from the big cities. i was recently reporting at the far right in the fonts, and this is where it's coming from the child support, right. there's a lot of support there. people are kind of dissolution with other parties, the struggling with winning public services. some of them complain about being overdrawn by immigrants and crime and they have, you know, you'll find great hope among the people that the far right does get a shot at coupling inc. products. and what do we know about the votes that turn out the officials that goes in funds now show that at noon there was a to a note of 25.9 percent and back to the jump of 7 points from the law. spot number 3 elections in 2022. that was, that was quite big. and the french me deal of seeing it is really the highest stone

on the, for the, for, for the 1st round in legislative elections in 4 decades. so that just gives you a sense, i think, of just how crucial and high stakes these elections, all with the pod right to, to a free, the of the gates of power here. me crucial high stakes, but a major gamble my present macro on calling this not election. could it back? fire on him. was the national gravity is really leading in all the opinion, pull some of the rules of giving them an outright majority. but i think we have to be careful the opinion polls don't really tell the whole story. and this is because we have to remember that most of the seats in the fridge funded with we'd be decided not to run off more on july 27th. we might see a rece there between 2 or 3 or even full content those. and they, you could see both those, you know, switching loyalties. the put the tactical agreements between parties are going to withdrawal to improve the tons of within the content of this was the strategy that has been used in the past in fonts to keep out fluoride candidates

a higher than usually water to. and it could also impact blackboard, so it's really very hard to see what the final result of this vote will be. but it's definitely a very high 6 election. but some of my goals, gamble code to back file if the measured body did gain, and absolute majority would be the 1st time in fond since world war 2, that we would have a fluoride government in power. and that would be really taking funds into uncharted territory. a correspondence on you that's on the car in paris and to clarify the 2nd round of the vote will be on july 7th, not 27th. now let's take a quick look at some other stories making headlines around the world. on gary and prime minister big old man has announced a new alliance of populace european policies. the so called patriots for europe aim to form a new fall rights group in the european parliament, austria's freedom party, and the check. i know group has also assigned the charter sedans, rapids support forces, say they've taken the key,
