PARIS — French people vote on Sunday in high-stakes snap parliamentary elections which could alter France 's trajectory and see the far-right party of Marine Le Pen take power in a historic first.With Russia's war against Ukraine in its third year and energy and food prices much higher, support for the anti-immigration National Rally party has surged despite President Emmanuel Macron's pledges to prevent its ascent.
If the RN obtains an absolute majority, RN party chief Jordan Bardella, Le Pen's 28-year-old protege with no governing experience, could become prime minister in a tense 'cohabitation' with Macron.On Monday, Macron plans to convene a government meeting to decide the further course of action, government sources told Agence France-Presse.
