French President Emmanuel Macron called for legislative elections on June 30 and July 7 after his party suffered a major defeat in the European Parliament elections, where far-right figures led by Marine Le Pen's National Rally party secured significant victories. Macron dissolved the French parliament and called for new elections, citing his belief that a united, strong, independent Europe is crucial for France. The outcome of the upcoming elections is uncertain, but Macron is predicted to try forming a wider alliance with the center-right or center-left to avoid a hung parliament.
