Results of the European Parliament elections started coming in from France to Germany, Belgium, Italy, and Spain, showing a rise in far-right wing forces. French President Macron's party only secured half the votes of the far-right National Rally party, leading Macron to announce the dissolution of parliament and early elections at the end of the month. If he loses, Macron might face a 'lame-duck' three-year term. The shift towards right-wing parties in European elections may complicate EU decisions on issues like sanctions on Russia and the US-China trade war.
