Paris: The coalition of French President Emmanuel Macron won the most seats in the final round of parliamentary elections on Sunday, but lost its parliamentary majority. Estimates based on initial results show that Macron’s candidates will win 200 to 250 seats.

This number of seats is far less than the 289 seats required for a direct majority in the National Assembly, the most powerful house of the French Parliament.

In such a situation, unless Macron is able to form an alliance with other parties, the chances of a weak legislature in France have increased.

Emmanuel Macron, who has so far tried to play a key role as the EU’s leading politician to stop the Russia-Ukraine war, seems to be engulfed in his own home.

Macron had also made several election promises to the people of the country, including raising the pension age from 62 to 65 years and giving social security benefits to the unemployed. However, the latest developments have turned Macron’s recent election victory into disappointment.
