Macron's gamble not 'paying off': 'Very difficult way forward for him' amid unprecedented division

Описание к видео Macron's gamble not 'paying off': 'Very difficult way forward for him' amid unprecedented division

French political parties used to a winner-takes-all electoral system are struggling to wake up to the reality of a divided chamber following Sunday's parliamentary ballot. The 577-seat National Assembly is roughly split into thirds between the New Popular Front (NFP) left alliance with at least 190 seats, President Emmanuel Macron's centrists at 164 and the far-right National Rally (RN), with 143. Further complicating the situation is the make up of the top-placed NFP, with its largest component, hard-left party France Unbowed (LFI) disliked even among other leftists for its strident rhetoric and ambiguous response to Hamas' October 7 attack on Israel. As France is forced to come to terms with pursuing coalition-building over the traditional winner-take-all politics, FRANCE 24's François Picard is joined by Noemie Bisserbe, Reporter at The Wall Street Journal, covering French politics and foreign policy.
