As France prepares for high-stakes parliamentary elections, the far-right National Rally led by Marine Le Pen is dominating polls, poised to secure over 35% of the vote. This surge raises concerns about potential 'cohabitation' scenarios for President Macron, as Le Pen predicts an absolute majority win and intentions to influence military decisions.

The left faces internal dilemmas, including the uncertainty surrounding Jean-Luc Mélenchon's role in the New Popular Front, while urging for unity to counter extremist coalitions. Macron's recent risky decision to dissolve Parliament reflects the escalating political tensions, emphasizing the need for French residents to engage in preventing the country from swaying towards radical ideologies.
