Afghan Voice Agency (AVA): The Associated Press reported in a report that French voters will go to the polls this Sunday in the first round of the controversial parliamentary elections, which could hand over the French government to nationalists and extremist forces.
This news agency added: The results of the two-term elections in France, the second round of which will be held on July 7, can affect the European financial markets, Western support for Ukraine, and the way global military forces and France's nuclear arsenal are managed.
Many French voters are disappointed with inflation and economic concerns, as well as the way the country is run by President Emmanuel Macron, and they consider him an arrogant president who is ignorant of their life situation.
The anti-immigration party of the National Community, headed by Marine Le Pen, has fueled these discontents by using social media such as Tik Tok and is leading in pre-election polls.
The new left-wing coalition known as the New Popular Front has also created challenges for Macron's party and his center-right coalition known as "United for the Republic".
Early voting began in France's cross-border regions, with polling stations on the French mainland opening at 8 a.m. local time on Sunday, after an abrupt election campaign marred by a spike in hate speech. It is expected that the first voting predictions will be done at 20:00 (local time) at the same time as the final polling stations close.
Polls show that Le Pen's National Community Party has a chance to win a parliamentary majority. In this scenario, Macron is expected to name Jordan Bardella as prime minister in an awkward power-sharing system.
While Macron has said he will not step down before the end of his presidency in 2027, this power-sharing undermines his administration of the country domestically and on the world stage.
The Associated Press wrote: It is difficult to predict the results due to the complex voting system and the parties' efforts to attract coalitions between two rounds of elections.
Bardella, who has no experience running the country, says he will use prime ministerial powers to stop Macron from continuing to transfer long-range weapons to Ukraine to fight Russia. His party has historically had ties to Russia.
According to IRNA, Le Pen's National Assembly party has also questioned the right of citizenship for people born in France and plans to limit the rights of French citizens with dual citizenship. Critics say the decision undermines human rights and threatens France's democratic ideals.
At the same time, the promises of the National Assembly party, and especially the left coalition, on government spending have shaken the markets and raised concerns about France's heavy debt, especially since France's debt issue has already been criticized by EU watchdogs. .
