France faces a political turnaround with no party winning an outright majority in the second round of the parliamentary election. The right-wing National Rally party (RN), linked to Marine Le Pen, finished third with 143 seats, while the New Popular Front (NFP) and President Macron’s Ensemble coalition also failed to secure a majority. With an estimated turnout of 67.1%, the highest since 1997, the election has left the country without a clear candidate for prime minister. President Macron is set to analyze the results before making any further decisions, and Prime Minister Gabriel Attal has announced his resignation following the exit poll results. Dive into this video for an in-depth analysis of the election results and their implications for France's political future.
