- France goes to the polls on Sunday in snap parliamentary elections. President Emmanuel Macron called the vote in response to his party's dismal showing in the European elections earlier this month. It's a gamble for Macron. He hopes to see off right-wing opponents - but may end up losing power. We spoke to DW’s correspondent Sonia Phalnikar in Paris about what's at stake for France.

Yes, let's ask Paris, the place where people who have opinions quite different from that of most of the French on this issue 😂
German news channel with an Asian reporter reporting on French elections about the far right. I guess she would have a better feeling of the issue than a French journalist. 😂
It is a mistake to focus on Paris here. It is almost the only place where the RN didn't succeed. If you want to understand France, leave the capital.
So biased
If the voters choose not to vote for the far right, there will be no surge for the far right. So . . . It's entirely the responsibility of the voters. Macron is in office until 2027, regardless of the outcome :-)
People are frustated because in the name of immigration all criminals and extremist enter the country. Now local and other hard working business people (from outside) who invested are facing problem and uncertainty.
Some people do not respect local life style and culture they want to implement there religious ideologies (specific community). This is a serious threat globally for Science, technology and progress. I think french people have make a smart decision in the coming days ahead not just short but long term.
Looking at how things are going you can easily find the answer to your childish question.
No, if a politician did exactly what he did under the same circumstances in 1924, would DW call it a gamble?
What exactly does this have to do with 1924?
The name of the party is the National Front, and you persistently call them the Extreme Right.
Hopefully it will. I'm sick and tired of his neoliberal and warmongering ideology!
Long live Putin, Xi against neoliberism 😂😂😂
@@PeterLamin-pi6rv The two all for authoritarianism. One is a veritable warmonger, too. And Xi is getting inspired.
Stpd warmongering!!!!!
Macron needs to go. All warmongers need to be voted out!!!
Oh .. I thought he had already lost and left. When's the party ?
Wanna bee Napoleon, to defeat Russia 💯🙃💯🤣🤡🤡🤣👍
Vote right! Take your country back!!
Hi MAGA boy
Vote centre right or far right? There's a world of difference between them, and the two don't really get along.
@@peabase I would go far right. Speed up the correction process. Then after a couple elections just vote center or center right. The Overton window will change allowing for return to center by then. Balance.
Edit: when all these media outlets stop calling the center or center right "far right". You probably changed the Overton window enough to safely vote center or center right again.
@@itsallminor6133 Given half the chance, your precious far right would eliminate every last one of its political contenders before you'd get to vote again. What am I saying, you would no longer get to vote, period. We've seen it all before.
@@peabase overreact. There is checks and balances. Exactly. We've seen it before. So we know the limits. You definitely don't want to stay far right.
The central issue is financial chaos.
He's an embarrassment.
Why? French are known for 💕 making.😂😂😂
This distraction sux. I don't understand how the EU works good enough to say much. I don't know what to say.
Don't feel bad nobody in the EU understands it either. That's one of the problems.
if you are so tone deaf, incapable of understanding the real questions people are facing then you get this result... maybe its time to stop yelling 'far right' and start listening to what the people are truly saying
Yes you’re totally right.
Oooups but I have a pretty good memory and a good knowledge of recent History therefore I do listen to “what” they are saying and I don’t believe a word of it.
They can repaint the shop all they did the bottom line trading business remains the same. Even smiling, the Bardella boy , hollow , careerist and extreme right winger won’t be selling off my freedom and my rights to get his way. In short, only over my dead body 🤷♂️🙄😱
When the rhetoric says FAR RIGHT, then we know the label is correct.
@@franciscouderq1100 oh dear oh dear... another shallow historical analysis that misses the point. I am an old style liberal, and can clearly see that the 'liberals' today have gone way too far into some idealist utopia... if you do remember history then do remember that the communist idealists under Rosa Luxenburg went way too far... until the pendulum swung back
@@whatgoesaroundcomesaround920 you are comedy gold
Not the Far-Right. Patriots.
So wat if they call it the far right?? Why wana be shy of being called a far right?
Patriot ????
Changing the label doesn't change the product. "Far-right" is accurate. "Patriots" may also be accurate -- we have to wait and see. We judge most accurately by people's actions, not their rhetoric.
It’s factually incorrect. Le Pen’s party is populist.
No, Vichyite fascist adjacent monsters.
If you are legal, you don’t need to worry about it
Players win and winners play. I'm a winner and I've come to play he thought...
Far right is better than far left. 👍🏻
Far left is better than far right.
They both are, like we say about flat beer, the same pot of wetness.
We are not talking about “far right” we are talking about extreme right and it s a complete different ballgame. Please look at what behind what hidden not only populist speeches and smiles, please
Macroni is finished 😂
Sonia is big mad.
How i wish instead of Macron a man like Jean Marc Ayrnault could have been president of France
He will finish third place
The impossible situation of getting what the people want...
Politics is the long game.
Clearly Paris is not Feance !!
France with no French people in it.
Yes without a doubt. Italy is lost, Hungary is lost. Now France has fallen.
France is for the French, not for squatters
Huuuuummm , if you say so. Surely you are busy making all the frenchy babies we need now and for the future, right ?
Yes, but also, Africa for Africans and not for FrancAfrique. Thank you.
Have a shot every time you hear “far right” and you will pass out halfway through the video.
The warmongers are not having good time allover the world 😅😅😅😅
You must mean Putin, but who else? Netanyahu? Iran's Ali Khamenei?
Chaos is a laddah.
Nice country to visit that’s about it.. they just can’t escape the hurdles that always present themselves.
En tant qu’observateur étranger, je dis un grand bravo à la France qui ont enfin décidé de se prendre en main face à la monté extremiste islamique, l’insécurité qui en découle et la dérive de l’économie mené par un gouvernement présidentiel en perte de vitesse…Il faut maintenant que tout cela se confirme au second tour…
FARRIGHTFARRIGHTFARRIGHTFARRIGHTFARRIGHTFARRIGHTFARRIGHTFARRIGHT😁
excellent reportage, merci
Commenting without knowledge lol
Get the Out of Touch ones out of power
Wanting France to look like what it was under De Gaulle is considered extreme nowadays...
Oh yay!!
The issue of immigrants is truly problematic. The right-wing says on the one hand that most immigrants are unemployed, taking money from working French citizens to support them -- but then rabble-rouses with the claim that immigrants are stealing jobs from French citizens. We have seen this double-dealing campaigning in the U.S. In fact, neither claim is true, but it scares people.
And stealing peoples Wall paper, don't forget that golden nugget from Le Pen :D
Failed country😂😂
The world would be amazing with more failed countries like France, with a high HDI index and being one of the largest economies in the world.
@@soundscape26 who make those index??
@@radhika00240 The UN.
Failed comment.
@@soundscape26 🤣🤣🤣un own by who??
Pienso que el mismo Macron ha tenido que ver con el ascenso de la extrema derecha en Francia. Despues del pesimo gobierno socialista, los franceses se volcaron al centro derecha para que resolviera sus problemas, pero Macron parece que ha decepcionado. El seguir la senda de la guerra con Rusia y buscar un confrontacion directa, ha sido el enfoque del centro derecha y de la izquierda, pero la extrema derecha no quiere financiar una guerra eterna contra Rusia y eso le gusta a los franceses.
Hay una diferencia entre hablando contra Rusia y especialmente Putin, y querer una guerra con un país si inmenso y poderoso.
Macron's gamble to call for early elections following his party's defeat in the European Parliament elections is seen as a risky move that could benefit the far-right National Rally party led by Marine Le Pen.
Macron's decision has sparked large protests across France, with tens of thousands demonstrating against both the far-right and Macron's snap election call.
Experts suggest Macron's gamble may have been a critical misstep that could lead to major consequences, potentially normalising and empowering the far-right in France.
Macron's snap election gamble appears to be backfiring, as it has boosted the far-right's momentum.
His warmongering backfired! Hooray.
Adios Macron. The French people will win!!!!
I have friends paying taxes with kids "sans papiers" 😢😢😢
Warmongering back🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Mostly all political decisions & public reaction are designed to address "current circumstances". There's nothing wrong with the mentality of "self-preservation". But people need to consider future repercussions. Being "lenient" with the Russian annexations & those gunpoint referendum introduce by Putin outside of his jurisdiction would certainly bring future problems not only in France or the Shengen Areas or the Baltics but the entire EU as well.
Populists don't take a long-term view. They pander to the masses, but when they fail to deliver on their promises, the masses get wise to them. So real power is a poison pill to our right-wing populists, but it's a bitter pill to everyone else, too.
Are u kidding? It's liberation!!!
Macron needs to go. The war needs to be stopped! !!!!!!!!! Unless you want a nuclear war!!!
France invade Russia, will not be unpunished.
Eu nato causescalation problems, stop blaming Russia! !!
Support MLP🇳🇴❤️🇫🇷
Macron's decision is purely political. Unfortunately, the problems are not political. The rise of the far right, or far left for that matter, has to do with prosperity. If a government fails when it comes to its citizens prosperity, said government should not be surprised if the citizenry looks for alternatives. The government in power can call the other parties populist, far right or whatever else they choose, but this name calling is merely a pathetic attempt at deflecting from one's own failures. Many governments have gotten away with incompetence, irresponsibility and total disregard for the well being and prosperity of their citizens, and it has caught up to them. What is the answer to all of this incompetence, irresponsibility and total disregard for the well being and prosperity of their citizens? Is it taking responsibility for their failures? Of course not, it is easier to call the challengers names. How pathetic.
Stratège if Macron.
Macron is DONE !!!! bardella in
I’m worried about DW’s far-left ‘reporting’ because it’s not objective.
The only objective reporting is to praise the aims of Le Pen and Company>
This reporting is trash. Comforting to see Germany is not much better.
You have 2 choices: Right or Sharia Law.
So Fascism or Theocracy.. Think we keep Democracy, Thanks.
Deport....
Many European nations have to face this conundrum of fighting immigration and not breeding their own to satisfy the labour market.
Have fun picking cabbage Fritz.
You don't have to "fight immigration" just be sensible about it.
@@soundscape26 Sensible? The right wants to remove citizenship from French nationals born in France.
What rational would you suggest?
@@davidmaisel8062 Of course that's terrible but is it even constitutional? I doubt it.
@soundscape26 it's not constitutional but constitutions can be amended.
Imagine being born in a country, finishing school, buying property, maybe starting a business and wake up to your or your families deportation notice.
Europe doesn’t want a hot war on the border nor in the colonies they "claim". France should be deeply concerned with the standard of life of French citizens living in an artificial economic crisis and abandon it's international adventurism.
But Macron want to sent troops to Russia 💯🎯🤣🤣🤣
@david…: if you say so
@@PeterLamin-pi6rv that's not going to end well for France.
@@franciscouderq1100 I think we agree on a few points.
I love this reporter and DW's work. I just hope they fix the sound issues because the rest is great.
They'll be a war.
Ba bye!!
The depth of knowledge shared here is truly remarkable, and I'm grateful to be part of such an intellectually stimulating conversation.👅
Nice, stimulating youtube icon Joella. Well done!

Se la vie bitches
Here before the far-right take over the comments
Were here
or rather, Russian internet propagandists
Fascism is alive and well in Europe as well in the United States
Indeed
yes fascism of left side.
Far right . No, just right so far
Extremist right is more like it
screw zelensky
Nooo zelensky is good for the USA and NATO, EU for money 🤑 laundering 🙃🤔😂😂
Can you say the same thing without swearing unless you éducation is truly failing (if you have any) and you can’t find such substitute.
@@franciscouderq1100 Not really as long as Macaron wants war with Russia to protect Zelensky
It's not about education. People have right to show their contempt.
Zelensky said a lot of nasty things. Nobody told him to stop.
