Agreements on the formation of the Popular Front alliance were reached seven months after the collapse of the previous left alliance – the New People’s Ecological and Social Union.
On the eve of early elections in France, the left agreed to form an alliance in record time. Le Monde reported it.
It was mentioned that the agreement on the formation of an alliance is called Popular Front parties reached seven months after the collapse of the former left alliance – New Ecological and Social Union of People (NUPES).
On Monday 10 June, the coalition was announced by the four leaders of the main left parties: Marine Tondelier (Greens), Olivier Faure (Socialists), Fabien Roussel (Communists) and Manuel Bompard (France was not conquered).
As politicians say, Popular Front will unite “all the forces of the humanitarian left, trade unions, associations and citizens.” But the question remains who will lead the alliance in the first elections announced by President Macron. Coalition Popular Front noted that it will nominate common candidates in the first round.
“We express our readiness to start this fight together to offer an alternative to Emmanuel Macron’s policies and to fight the racist far-right,” Manuel Bompard said after the agreement was reached.
As is known, the left alliance NUPES was created in the 2022 parliamentary elections, but then collapsed as most leftist parties criticized the movement’s dominance. France was not conquered.
Let’s remember that a survey of French citizens, published after the decision of the President of the country Emmanuel Macron to dissolve the parliament, shows that the far right National Association won early elections, though without an absolute majority.
