French labor unions have expressed deep concern following the first round of legislative elections, where the far-right National Rally party secured a significant 33.15% of the vote.

Union leaders, including those from CGT, CFDT, and UNSA, have called the situation a 'mortal danger' to the French Republic.

They are urging for a 'democratic surge' in the second round, calling on candidates to withdraw in favor of those best positioned to defeat far-right candidates.

The unions warn of potential discrimination and reduced workers' rights if the National Rally gains power.

Some unions are even considering protests and strikes if a far-right government is formed, vowing to make it 'ungovernable'.
