French election shocker: reaction and analysis

France has voted and the results are in — our POLITICO team in Paris discusses the surprising results of the final round of the parliamentary election in this special episode of EU Confidential. Host Nicholas Vinocur is first joined by POLITICO's Victor Goury-Laffont to break down the results and explain how President Emmanuel Macron’s centrists and the left-wing alliance mobilized to stymie Marine Le Pen’s far right National Rally. POLITICO's executive editor in France, Marion Solletty, joins the podcast to discuss where France goes from here. We also hear from POLITICO's Giorgio Leali, calling in from the National Rally's election event, and Nicolas Camut, checking in from one of the left-wing alliance’s parties, France Unbowed. We hope you enjoy this special episode of EU Confidential from Paris. We'll be back in your feeds on Friday, as usual. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
