- In the second round of France's legislative elections on Sunday, the left-wing New Popular Front (NFP) landed a surprise win over the far-right National Rally (RN). None of the alliances achieved an absolute majority. DW's chief political correspondent Nina Haase spoke to German Green Party lawmaker Tobias Bacherle about the election results and their significance for the EU and German-French relations. Despite RN getting fewer seats than predicted in many polls, Bacherle still sees the outcome as a warning, and argues that the far right is on the rise.

People who want to maintain the status quo vote moderate. People who are desperate for change vote far (left or right). Why is this so difficult for DW to understand? How many more "far right is on the rise" reports do we need to hear about?
Yeah but one side (the left) wants a change for the better and far right are just reactionary freaks.
What he's saying is true. People have to learn to stay together and solve problems not by discriminating each other.
Not possible
No attempt to even pretend to be impartial or hide any bias.
Non at all. In Europe, the S.. will have hit the fan in nex decade unforunately.
They're so convinced of their position even as their opponents numbers grow.
The far right? How far right are they? Why dont you use the word far when referring to the left? Are you implying that conservatives are extremists? Say what you will but i hope all of Europe swings right because people have had enough of socialists, communists, globalists.
People love free education and healthcare matter of fact. Conservatives love it too. People vote because of other issues like immigrants which is a reason for conflict I understand but it seems to be overblown.
the far let is Lutte ouvvrière in France and they did not win a seat. And despite your fantasy people had more then enough of nationalists, we don't have fish memory like you, we know how WWII started. At least don't speak about France, you don't know a dam thing about what is going on here, otherwise you would have known that you beloved RN had no chance at all to get a majority.
@@trartalacrem thanks comrade.
The term "far left" is not used? Have you googled it once? of course its used.
Far right wants to destroy democracy and marginalize minorities, far left is trying to prevent thar the far rights do that. Thats a big difference imo.
@@trartalacremsure, RN is not in the majority, but 35% isn't "far right." 5 or 10 percent might be far right, but not 35 percent.
The NFP was formed from 9 leftist parties, and the RN still received 10% more in the popular vote. That popular vote will be bigger in 2027 and that will only be a two person race.

Have any journalists done, you know, journalism? Gone out and talked to people, found out what their concerns are, and why they vote the way that they vote?
Or do all journalists prefer to sit on padded chairs in comfortable offices, making stuff up because they "know" what is going on? It sure seems like it.
it also seems like no one ever talks to people of the opposite viewpoint; they only talk to people who share the same opinions. what are they afraid of?
@@zw9802 A cosy culture where they can comfort each other while ignoring what will ineviably come in next ten years or before.
@@abdell75roussos most people are so clueless about history, and invested in their "herd," that they won't realize that their countries are permanently destroyed until it's too late.
The left coalition will fight among themselves 😅
It will be a disaster and their rhetoric and gaslighting of any conservative leaning citizens of france will lead to boosts for the RN in the coming years
How does DW, being state funded, get away with being so biased? Any Germans can enlighten me?
it's not biased because it's on the television
Stop catering to non-citizens if you want the citizens to stop looking at far-right as their last option left.
What do you mean by catering to non-citizens? Not wanting them to be treated like second class citizens?
@@soundscape26you mean treated like non citizens
@@soundscape26 Non-citizens are not 2nd tier citizens. They're not citizens at all. We all must respect them as fellow humans regardless of their citizenship. But Leftists put them above citizens and cater to them over and before the citizens.
It's a genuine concern that the Left has been ignoring for decades and it's going to cause a severe pushback if course correction doesn't happen.
@@mcddewitt Or that. Same.
@@soundscape26anyone that blivs in t Pdfile Profit
The adults in the room agreed to disagree and first defend priority #1 the open, free, and fair democracy as we still know today.
It was collusion between Parties to shut out voters. Not great. Voters wanted RN in many cases but RN lost those districts only because of the collusion
Communist wins not a democracy
Macron will probably work with Center-Right and name a Prime Minister from that Party
Germany has become a joke 😅😂🤣
my dog has no nose
The story isn't so much "defeat" of the rights it is good news that left, right, and center now MUST cooperate. "Troubling"? Why? Don't you believe in democracy? Another country's democracy. How many seats are "too many" for any party. And who cares what "Moscow" thinks. When you say fascist, it is nothing more than name calling. Enemies? You betray your own version of extremism. Be fair.
Because what Russia wants is a good indication of what's terrible for France. Russia views it as a zero sum game. Remember they pushed division during the Brexit campaign and look how that turned out for the UK
Troubling? Hardly. It shows how frustrated the public is with the ruling party. Germany will be next in line to face the onslaught of a badly disappointed public wanting real change.
So soon the world forgets the bloody lessens of the 1930s & 40s. Too often does arrogance demand a reminder.
the lesson was that France was a surrender monkey then, and if DW has its way, it will always be one. I'm reminded of a joke: Q. why do the French plant trees along the Champs Elysee? A. because the Germans like to march in the shade. except that in order to modernize the joke, the answer could be changed to: because the jihadis like to pray in the shade.
True, France has easily surrendered to the Islamists.
No worries, the US Israel will intervene and interfere like always, nothing to worry
you mean the US will interfere and save Europe's chestnuts when Putin invades? not likely, this time. the US has lost its mojo, and besides, European countries don't have any sense of national sovereignty anymore anyway.
countries in europe have to solve illegal migration, or this will just get worse... There is essentially two things that europeans agree on, we need a working legal migrations, and stand united with ukraine... Those two things is fate changing issues !
yep; there won't be any "Europe" much longer if immigration isn't drastically reduced. i lived in Holland in the late 70s, and I don't think i would even recognize the place now.
a welcome thoughtful contribution-keep up the great work Nina!
The main thing I see in the ‘right’ movement is there is not any inclusive in their politics. It is for the few and for the extreme it’s not for the people. It is more for the rich people and is me me me… it’s not about saving or doing good for the ordinary person which they are trying to convince the ordinary person in, but is the average person who’s going to serve the extremist on the top? I’m with the average person sees that it’s too late.
The current left in government is precisely also doing the same.
Benefiting the escalation of global war conflicts, cebilar giving to real support to Ukraine, and still use them as a humanitarian plea, they have just helped the weapon manufactures get way richer, and failing miserably to achieve any peace ☮️
Why? Because they really don’t represent left ideals in any way, it’s the same scheme as the left in the US, using distorted narratives to appeal the the humanitarianism of the people only to use it against them.
So low have they fallen, and it’s sincerely frustrating to see that no side in German politics has a complete good deal for the people, they all have a small amount of good deals with the price of several other narratives that serve nobody but rich people and their own pockets.
And this applies for right and left.
Far wrong
😉🔻🔻🔻🔻
lol. yeah, Europe is firmly in the jihadis' sights ...
He makes some sound and sobering points.
everyone is far right if you are on the left which is just playground politics.
Melanchon is also antisemitic.
Robespierre effect.😊😊
There is left and far right. Never Heard about just right
@@piotrsobczak2866The Republicans, the party that came 4th. They're the right.
French politic is in great and historical era than ever. The far right is the single political party won the biggest seat. Others are coalitions formed unity not because of they like each other but to defeat the so called common enemy. After the election, each of them will be by themselves. In Germany the situation will be the same in slow process. Then, the whole of Europe will follow. However, this will be the best for many part of the Global South other than the desert oil and gas people that have missions to multiply and spread their religion with goal to dominate and control Europe based on their desert religion doctrine and conduct and that will be much worse than Ottoman did to south and eastern Europe.
European integration is on a good way - without the green party
About time. Enough socialist utopia BS.
The alternative is the same nationalist attitude that fueled WWI. Europe doesn’t need mass casualties, but that’s where nationalism leads.
@@ShaneyElderberrythey somehow managed not to have WW3 for many decades after ww2, without completely sacrificing their national identity and sovereignty. they can do it again.
@@zw9802 at least one nationalist state will want to expand, eventually. You can’t keep them satisfied, if they all believe they are more important than the other countries. Unfortunately, the only thing policing the peace is the looming threat of American military bases all over the globe. We all know far right, nationalist politics isn’t a system that attracts European immigrants. I’ve not read anything about masses of West Europeans flocking to Orbán’s Hungary.
@@ShaneyElderberry why didn't any of this stuff happen in the decades after WW2?
CERTS BREATH MINTS BETTER THAN BRAIN SURGERY DOCS
DW the far far left
Why feel great about the left only?
Franchistan bye bye France 🇫🇷, ppl in Europe forgot that communism is bad.
