among various reactions abroad, those of the Stock Exchanges, relieved to see the scenario of the RN in power moving away

On Sunday, the National Rally came out on top in many constituencies in the first round of the legislative elections. “An election that alarms all of Europe,” wrote the American newspaper Politico on Monday. However, the probability of an absolute majority for the RN has become somewhat more remote.

In the world, the day after June 30 and the first round of early legislative elections, one thing is certain, all eyes are on France and the consequences of the dissolution.

The British are preparing to vote in the general elections on Thursday, July 4. Polls have been showing the Labour Party as the clear winner for months. Keir Starmer, the leader of the Labour Party, favorite to become the next Prime Minister, believes that the “lesson” to be drawn from the result of the first round of the legislative elections in France is that it is necessary “respond to daily concerns” voters. The American newspaper Politico talks about a hangover in France and above all buries the President by talking about the French wish to turn the page on Macron.

Poland has also spoken out. Donald Tusk speaks of a great danger for France and Europe. The man who defeated the PIS, the Law and Justice party last year – ending 15 years of power of a nationalist, eurosceptic and extreme right-wing government – is also worried about Russian influence in these elections. The Kremlin, precisely, follows “the elections in France are very close”affirmed his spokesperson, who added that he wanted to wait for the second round even if the voters’ preferences appear more or less clearly.

In certain countries, we are directly delighted with the good score of the extreme right. This is the case in Italy, where the vice-president of the council, leader of the league Matteo Salvini, congratulates Marine Le Pen and Jordan Bardella for the extraordinary result obtained in this first round of the legislative elections. Matteo Salvini, speaking in an individual capacity and not on behalf of Italy, speaks of “Shame on Macron”The official reaction comes from Giorgia Méloni, the Prime Minister, who believes that demonization no longer works.

In Spain, the clear support of the leader of the far-right VOX, Santiago Abascal, speaks of the victory of hope, freedom and security for the French. This is the opposite of the Spanish Prime Minister, Pedro Sanchez, who does not take the victory of the extreme right for granted and remains hopeful in the mobilization of the left French.

The last reaction to note is that of the markets. It’s not a statement but it says a lot. The euro benefited Monday from market optimism after the results of the first round of the French legislative elections. Investors estimated that the probability of an absolute majority for the National Rally has diminished. European stock markets are up, which shows according to analysts that the markets are taking a breather and are pushing away the idea of ​​a radical change.
