France is experiencing significant political upheaval following a series of unexpected electoral events.
The dissolution of the National Assembly by President Emmanuel Macron has sparked widespread disapproval, with 67% of the public viewing it negatively.
This decision, coupled with the rise of the Rassemblement National (RN) in the European elections, has intensified political polarization.
The traditional Republican front, once a bulwark against the far-right, is now seen as ineffective, leading to a fragmented political landscape.
Despite a strong mobilization against the RN, public trust in political institutions remains low, with 73% expressing distrust in the newly elected Assembly.
The political climate is further strained by a general disillusionment with political leaders, as many French citizens feel disconnected from the current political discourse.
