On June 30, 2024, France held parliamentary elections following French President Macron's decision to dissolve the National Assembly and call for early elections after his party's defeat to the far-right National Rally party in the European Parliamentary elections. Polls suggest that the National Rally may win a majority in the French parliament for the first time since World War II, with Macron's Renaissance party lagging behind. The outcome will not directly affect Macron's presidency until 2027, but may lead to an extreme-right prime minister. The political landscape also sees the emergence of new alliances, such as the New People's Front. The elections will have a second round on July 7 if no party secures a majority in the first round. The National Rally, known for its anti-immigrant and anti-EU stance, aims to shift French politics towards its vision if victorious. Macron, on the other hand, vows to stay in office despite potential clashes with opposing ideologies.
