and accordingly everything, macron completes his second round, then, well, then, for example, marie le pen wins, or, for example, re... macron, conditionally speaking, tried to make sure that such a development of events is now ahead of the presidential elections. whether he was wrong or not, i think it is too early to judge, why? i would not call the elections in france a complete victory for the national of the marine le pen front. they get really 34%, but 20, 29% gets the bloc of the left, that is , their votes are practically polarized, in france we see the absolute polarization of voters, and somewhere in the middle 20% are centrists, by the way, centrists, that's it, that the phenomenon that macron created, because in france there have never been centrists, in france there have always been right and there have always been left, they were just a little less right, less left, but... centrists, as a rule, have never been in france , macron created this phenomenon, but he as we can see, it has not completely taken root, but there is still this polarization, it is very important here what

therefore, i will not yet claim that marie le pen's party has completely won.re is a certain tendency. yes, this trend indicates that the right movements. in europe every month and every year, at least in the last one five-year, they are gaining great, great results, gaining great strength, and why? europe has already had a similar experience, and we understand that historical processes, they very often have a spiral character, if you can say so, why exactly such a trend appears again, well, first of all, we are here... to understand that we are right movements, of course, this does not mean that they are fascists there, or that they are some, that is, let us not also fall into this kind of maximalism and fall into such thoughts that it is supposed that these are some, that these are some fascists there, the hitlerites are leaving, this absolutely it is not true, it is normal that there are leftists, there are centrists, there are rightists, there are different movements, there are of course. for example, the same political force of the afd in germany, well, th

well, there is a slightly different question, there is the party of marie le pen, which is now slowlyng towards the center. but why do they recruit? the reason lies in the absolutely wrong policy, which, unfortunately, some states in the european union pursued. and this policy is primarily based on the reception of migrants, i.e. these states probably received such a large number of migrants. which they couldn't master, look, actually, the reception of migrants, it's not a completely negative thing there, it's just that every the state must understand: there is a certain limit and there is a certain number of places that they can, a certain number of people that they can accept, because every migrant is also a responsibility, every migrant must, if he arrived, socialize in this state, get housing , get a job, get a certain status, integrate into this society, and in the beginning really. it was like that, those waves of migrants, the first who arrived in great britain, in france, in germany, in sweden, in other countries, they, they integrated perfectly, they, someone from some of the

at france, i positively evaluate macron and his policy towards ukraine, but i am horrified by marie le pent we will see, this is an open process. therefore, it is a great miracle, a great effort of many people who understood that russia is interested in our conflicts, in our hatred-ukraińska, no to jestem bardzo krytyczny, przepraszam, że tak mózię. but the good news is that this does not apply to the elite, journalists, politicians, academics. for them, this war is a part of polish identity, but i believe that polish politics is very passive. poland was not a member of nato, and the germans did not allow people to wait so long at that border. of course, roads and trade should be controlled, but not people, everything was done to have active contacts, tourism, cultural exchanges. this border is also through. will be after the victory, but at the same time it can be a competitor for poland, there is always competition, only in the end competition, and this is the nature of the free market system, it strengthens both sides of different characters, there is no one who wins, because monopoly i

all talking about this one, marine le pen, whose party the national rally took the lead in sunday's vote. if the surname is familiar that's because her father, jean—mariebig across the nation. her party's populist anti—immigrant eurosceptic message, and it's 28—year—old candidate for the minister's job, finding broad appeal. formerly, it was more people that were workers in complicated economical situations, now you have also white—collars voting, you have women voting for national rally, you have young people. meanwhile, france's president is in trouble. no wonder it looked like emmanuel macron was trying to hide yesterday. his election gamble has backfired. his centrist party on track to lose heavily. so, what of plans to block the far right from sweeping to victory? this afternoon, different parties began arriving at parliament aiming to forge a united front against the national rally. but the divisions are all too evident. the leader of the green party here, brought to tears of frustration during the debate. france is still digesting the shock of yesterday's election result. love it or loathe it, the national rally is now at the heart of france's p

i've a different take, the national rally which is a right wing party led by marie le pen everybody calledut is not far right they want to be tough on immigration and restore traditional culture things there not a fascist party in the way the media covers them they were expected to get a larger share of seats, they did not because the other two blocks combined stood down in the seats where the rn the national rally was running and they were pushed into third place they were pushed in the overall boat they came first in the overall boat they got 36 or 37% of the vote, the key thing the national rally the right wing conservative populist party has been rising steadily for 15 years, they have two seats in parliament in 2012, eight seats in 2017 and 89 seats in 2022 and 140 something yesterday. again i think this is actually a period defeat for the national rally because it puts them, they don't have to for the government which would be very difficult they would have to govern a couple years with a hostile president that would be difficult for them there's good to be another election a preside

the party led by marie le pen and founded by her holocaust denying father has renounced its anti-semitic past, but for years, has rallied on anti-muslim rhetoric and described migrants as threatening, particularly to women. macron, who will remain as president for another three years, warned that far right risks sparking a civil war. and in germany, police broke up protests this weekend outside the afd, or alternative for germany convention. that far right party pulled off its best performance ever in european parliamentary elections, worrying chancellor olaf schultz and moving one of afd's leaders borne hawk from the fringe to the floor. hawk says he deplores the nazis but led chants of their slogans which landed him back in court since germanin' law bans the use of phrases. they advocate for tough deportation policies, suspicious of climate change and the government response to covid. waves of migrants mainly from syria, afghanistan and africa have been pleaing to germany since europe's 2015 refugee crisis. earlier this month this viral individual video of germans chanting foreigners o

results, there approximately 34% was won by the right-wing party or the radical right-wing party of marie le penplease tell me in your... opinion, whether these results will affect the results, or maybe the results of the second the tour, which will take place on the seventh of july, on the relations between france and ukraine and in general, can it... influence the general position of the european union in the future? well, everything will depend on how these elections will finally end and on the basis of which the new composition of the parliament is formed, which majority and which there will be a cabinet of ministers and who will be the head of the cabinet of ministers, although of course we know that france is still a presidential republic and... a large number of things related to foreign policy, to defense policy, they will remain in the hands of president macron, but at the same time we understand that the government is responsible for budget funds, for the allocation of those budget funds for certain things, and of course, this can be a significant, the new government can be a significa

it was marine le pen's father at the time, jean—marie le pen, who was humongously controversial. of media had a policy which was to, you know, never invite any representative of the far—right, never give them any kind of interview, sort of, you know, constantly present them as this very hateful, very racist force. with the far—right making gains and essentially forming a group in parliament, becoming sort of a, just a force to reckon with, even in terms of lawmaking, in terms of material reality and the fact that they have not only an important influence in the population, they're the party which has received the most vote in the past two elections. but even in the lawmaking process and the fact that they control certain local administrations. so media have kind of had to adapt to that reality and to a certain extent treat them as, you know, just one of the three big blocks that we have in the current french political landscape. but as i was saying, you also need to take into account that we have part of the press which has been taken over by, you know, certain people who have a

chance of beating the national riley, the the best, the same people the still the from when joe marie le pen was running the policy on a they didn't prove that communications with tick tock, videos and so forth, but behind it and nothing has changed. i don't believe it for a 2nd on your way to re up seals as though it's 1995 all over again with an emboldened file. right. and a fearful migrant community. this mailbox full of national riley leaflets in hopes of possible fall right. government is a short lived as it was baghdad, steadfast and algebra. 2 long friends. one place in india, lost investigations for at least $121.00. people were killed at a stump, paid on tuesday, the 10s of thousands of people that attended a religious event in the northern states, which i, for this child strength of triples. the family of 35 year old will be debbie or grief stricken and a short movie was among the more than a $120.00 people killed in a stampede. that's a religious event in production tuesday. please say most of the victims with children many would crush to death. all fell into a roadside drain in t

as on marine, you'll marie le pen. that it seems that it's really been crumbling because in the last 10 years, also a marine or pan has been sort of detoxifying the fall wrong to making it now more main stream policy. but many people are more openly willing to say they'll vote for them. but nevertheless, micro, i'm hoping that somehow the fall right can be prevented from getting an absolute majority next sunday. but by him really, it's almost, you could say the end of the macro on era. he's gonna have to a point to prime minister whether from the fall left the left or the fall right, with who, who be will have huge political differences. and so what happens now between now and the 2nd round next week. what indication is that the vote from this very strong give us all of what happened also after sunday while you did have for the full, the national raleigh, a 13 the 34 percent shattered boat that's almost doubled when they go to need 2022, legislative elections and they never walk out over 20 percent. before a while i wa

and then the upheaval, national riley leader marie le pen celebrated the preliminary victory my dea, a compact tree at that democracy has spoken. and the french people have placed the national riley and its allies for default. or on the, practically, you're raising the max from this block made a manual micron cold for snap elections following his parties, losses and last month's european parliamentary elections. vanessa for his call to send troops to crane, drew a sharp criticism from his opponent's chief. among those is maureen, the pan whose party is currently leading the election raised was almost 34 percent or strongly for lunch. on the left wing coalition is drawing in seconds was 28 percent. so meanwhile, the french prime minister is warned of the pens, party winning and outright majority the subject to declare our objective is clear to prevent the national riley from obtaining an absolute majority in the 2nd round and from dominating parliament, and therefore from governing the country. within a serious plan, it has in mind, i say this with all the force of the moment demands

because marie le pens national rally did not come in 1st. i think the answer to that is but really you know, many people were really excited. they were also very surprised last night. no one was expecting that result because all the polls ahead of the 2nd round. if anything had shown that the far right national riley would come 1st. and then in between round one and round 2, which was only one week. lots of people actually got into action. they sprung into action. they were across the territory just to be entering flyers. and many people were appealing to a to is to vote for the candidates that were not from the file. right. there was also a number about 200 what they called jesus to more so people, you know, some candidates withdrew from the race who came to in the 1st round of ratings. the older contributed to the results on being different from what everybody was expecting. hence, these scenes of, you know, exuberant joy last night because no one was thinking that that would be the outcome . yeah. see, but how did everybody get so surpris

tomorrow they will take place, in fact the party that won a week ago, the national union party of marie le pene facto can win in the second round as well, but there are certain nuances and... we already see, we see sociology, by the way, who is interested, in fact, during the last few days, this sociology began to demonstrate that the le pen party is losing votes, losing support, even if we say so, it is not losing votes, and thanks to the efforts of the left and macron's party, efforts, efforts to unite around one candidate in a huge number of constituencies. in fact , le pen's party may get, if not defeat, then not get a majority, accordingly and not form a government, by the way, together with another of its potential partners, this is a conservative party, if i'm not mistaken, the republicans, i'm sorry, which is part of them, part for, part, part of the right part of the republicans, who can also get there from 35 to... 50 mandates as of now, well, we have such a situation, which alarming, and there are certain positive trends, but there are also statements, lepen and... for some reason,

the still the from when joe marie le pen was running the policy on a, they didn't prove that communications with tick tock, videos and so forth. but behind it and nothing has changed. i don't believe it for a 2nd on your way to re up seals as though it's $9.00 to $95.00 all over again with a number of that file right and a fee of full migrant community. this mailbox full of national riley leaflets. the hopes of possible fall, right government is a short lived as it was baghdad, steadfast and l just sierra to long friends. now, bulk area could be facing a 7 selection, and 3 is political uncertainty. continues that. the sense that i've got policy failed to secure as a full for a propos, cabinets in parliament. the minority guffman could not get the backing of all the policies and lost the vote. $98.00 to a $138.00. thousands of albanians have come out for the funeral of the country's best. no novelist and play arrived who smiled, cuz all day the prime minister joined foreigners and paying is respects, albania, has declared 2 days of mourning, neighboring kosovo, which is dominated by ethnic.

, who denierjean—marie le pen, who is, of course, marine le pen's father. other forms of racism keep popping upi other forms of racism keep popping up, and one of the party's candidates, who is, accused of being a racist, has argued today that she couldn't be a racist because she has a muslim dentist and a jewish opticians. >> okay , okay. but but the fact >> okay, okay. but but the fact of the matter, the fact of the matter is, you know, in the first round, the national rally was a convincing victory with 35% of the vote. this is precisely the sort of political manoeuvres that perhaps emmanuel macron knew would happen, he's done the horse trading to keep le pen out of power, doing all he can to do that. does that have a consequence? we read today, that even macron himself said there could be heading for disorder, rioting and even civil disobedience with this election, particularly if power is locked out with this kind of trading and air france indeed today announce it expects take ,150 million hit during the olympics as tourists stay away from paris, they

what is extremely interesting about the french situation is that the far right party and marie le pen'siewed antisemitic because of her father and now moved in a way they are seen as pro-israeli. she was very, very clear that no french jews should ever be fearful in their own country. the rebranding of her party is what has gotten her to this point. it's been extremely interesting to watch politically. it's a real political earthquake in france. >> they need to get this out of the way so they can start preparing for the olympics when we get there, do you know what i'm saying? >> maybe overhang yellow vest the entire moment is supposed to be opportunity to put a huge spotlight on the beautiful city that is paris but the entire country and the question is whether every news report about the olympics is going to somehow touch on the politics of this country. >> right. the election will be over then. then they will be in the process of trying to perhaps form a government which is what they do over there. >> one of the times i was there, yellow vests were there everywhere. >> they love to pr

they're afraid that jean—marie le pen is going to appear all of a sudden, and marine is going to go backdon't think she will. i think she's a good politician and she reads things correctly and she will steer a safe course. and but i think the french will get upset and riot and go crazy about it and all of europe will will tremble a bit. >> why can't the left deal with democracy? we saw it in america. we saw it. i think it's a fair point. we saw it in america with, you know, unless i'm unless i'm just being, you know, rose tinted specs here. but we rarely see it from the right, do we? this kind of like backlash and rioting. and the election was rigged. oh, it was russia or, you know. yeah i don't know. >> it's as you cite america. i mean, they've got 330 million people. why is this the best they can come up with? joe and kamala, you know. and just why have the democrats let themselves get in this kind of position? >> well, if back to france, if marine le pen does win today, france will have its youngest ever prime minister. what kind of guy is he? what's his name? >> he's okay. jordan bar

and i think it's no more the all national rally you can know from jean—marie le pen history. w, national rally party with marine le pen, of course, with jordan bardella . and we are actually, bardella. and we are actually, if you look at the polls, we could have an absolute majority in, in france, which would be honestly amazing. and it would be a piece of history for france and even for , for europe. and even for, for europe. >> charles henry, just for our viewers at home, of course, in france it's a different electoral system to our own one. here, use the two round system there. can you just explain to our viewers what exactly that means and how it differs from our own? >> i mean, with your system , we >> i mean, with your system, we will have one and i will have one on my, let's say circonscription. i'm ahead of a 41 person, so i will have been elected . but in france it's elected. but in france it's different. you've got two round. so normally you have the two first candidates that can, apply for the second round, but sometimes you have the third candidate that can stay if

seats, which is many, many more than the 89 they had before they snap election was called and as marie le pens last night, the tide is rising and there is some evidence of that, that the party is continuing to grow its position here in france. and the issue which drives that is not going away. the issue is immigration, as it is in many countries around europe and particularly illegal immigration on the south coast. our correspondent andrew harding has been to the city of marseille where it is particularly pertinent to speak to some of the supporters who now support the rally of marine le pen. in the port city of marseille, the immigration debate has dominated these elections. this has always been a diverse place. and nigerian bar owner prince sees that as a strength. because we have a family, we have our children, we are trying to make the society to be better for our children to live. but the rise of france's national rally with its fiercely anti—immigrant platform is alarming many communities here. "the party is trying to divide french people," sastonathan. "that could be very dangerous". i

milanchon, its leader, actually like that, it's like that marie lippin on the left, and you can so to speak, even more seriously, because marine le pen is changing, and mélenchon somehow not much, but there may be a situation when the left parties of france will are ready to form a government with macron without this party of mélenchon, if they have a majority, without him, is this possible? to be unlikely in theory , of course, in theory, of course, everything can be, but it is worth noting that after all, the party of elifi, my god, and luc melianchon, it has the majority of votes, has the majority of deputies, the greatest weight in the new popular, yes, that is why it is difficult to imagine , if for this reason melianchon is nominated, let's say, marginalize him on... on the ultra-left spectrum, where he is, in principle, located, and then try to form some, some positions, but if you look at the data, i will tell you right now, from july 5th, macron's party is predicted to have 118-148 seats, and the new ones in hopily will have a total of 145 to 176, and if you throw out some conditional 80 votes from there or 70 votes, which a

le pen is trumpism by and large. here is this new, not the same national association before, but now this policy. you see, marine lippen under the israeli flag, that's not jean-marieippen with anti-semitic statements, but why is she under the israeli flag, an outpost of the west in the middle east, uh, it's like how these far-right forces once supported the south african republic, closed on something, but they believed that this was their position, and many such examples can be given, that is... when trump became the president of the united states for the first time, he had almost no allies in the world. now he can gather miley, le pen, orban, andrzej duda for his inauguration, because pidzha is now in the ultra-right faction in the european parliament, you know? yaroslav kaczyński, here to george maloney. imagine the number of politicians who share trump's principles in latin america and europe. and this also suggests that the republicans understood which way should be followed in order to maintain power. politics is always a struggle for power, and the means for this struggle are very often not chosen. and so those people who, like mitch mcconnell, talk about th

and do you think that's a result of marine le pen having sanitised the party a bit more, changed the name from the national front that her father, jean—marie now calling it the national rally , obviously got bardella rally, obviously got bardella front and centre of the movement as a future prime minister. a young guy that can relate to the gen zs. has that all helped ? gen zs. has that all helped? >> well, i think, you know, marine le pen claims that she has changed the face of the party, one that is indisputably unked party, one that is indisputably linked with the, you know, racism of the worst kind , racism of the worst kind, including islamophobia and anti—semitism. i mean , the anti—semitism. i mean, the party's has firm roots in nazism. founding members fought with the waffen ss . and there's with the waffen ss. and there's also a lot of nostalgia that is unked also a lot of nostalgia that is linked to the resentment over the loss of france's colonial empire, and not least of all in algeria. and i think that all this legacy hasn't gone away, and there's no evidence of that legacy that has magically vanished. i think quite the opposi
