from Europe to the United States, the decision causes controversy in the media

In the United States, in Europe, in Russia: the same superlatives to describe Emmanuel Macron’s surprise decision. “A huge political gamble”judge BBC News, the Italian channel Tg2 talks about a “political earthquake” while the German newspaper Spiegel asks: “But what is Macron making? ?”. The high score of the far right in France has challenged British political commentators, as well as some Londoners. “Fascism is back”deplores a woman.

In Italy, where Giorgio Meloni’s far-right party, already in power, has consolidated its position, Romans are divided as to the advice to give to French voters. One of them recommends “vote for the worst, which you already know, rather than for the new one which you do not know”. In the United States, Americans are focusing on Jordan Bardella, whom CBS describes as “telegenic”. In Moscow (Russia), the media instead focused on the very good score for Marine Le Pen’s party. For the Russians, this is a sanction vote against Emmanuel Macron, because of his displayed support for Ukraine.
