Navigating through France’s political storm

On Sunday night, Emmanuel Macron called for snap elections. The decision follows the European election results, which confirmed the victory of Rassemblement National and the clear defeat of the president’s party, Renaissance. Can Macron's surprise political gamble halt the growing success of the far right? In this episode, host Giada Santana and reporter Théo Bourgery-Gonse analyse what will come out of France’s political storm, with original comments from Greens co-chair Melanie Vogel, and RN youth director Pierre Romain Thionnet.  Plus additional reporting from Paul Messad and Nathan Canas.
