France's hard-right National Rally party took to the campaign trail Tuesday following a resounding victory in the European Parliament election.
Empowered by a stunning triumph at the European elections, France’s far-right National Rally on Tuesday hit the national campaign trail with its star leader, Jordan Bardella, promising supporters 'the largest possible majority' at the upcoming parliamentary vote.
While sharp differences between parties remain on either side of the political spectrum, prominent figures calling for a united front appear to have one thing in common: They don’t want to cooperate with Macron. Despite their divisions, left-wing parties agreed late Monday to form an alliance that includes the Greens, the Socialists, the Communists and the far-left France Unbowed of Jean-Luc Mélenchon. Leaders have not agreed on who will head the coalition nor on its program.
Macron is expected to discuss the upcoming election in a news conference scheduled for Wednesday.
