Demonstration against the victory of French far-right party Rassemblement National in the European elections

People are gathering for a demonstration at the Place de la Republique against the victory of the French far-right party Rassemblement National (RN) in the European elections, taking a position of strength in the early legislative elections called by the French President after the election results, in Paris, France, on June 10, 2024. Analysts are saying the French leader is taking the extremely risky gamble of dissolving the national parliament in a bid to keep the far-right Rassemblement National (RN) party out of power when his second term ends in 2027, after the far right crushed his centrist alliance in the June 9, 2024 EU ballot. The announcement is sparking widespread alarm across France, even from within the ranks of his own party.
