Is Macron Orchestrating a Coup? – Yasser Louati
By calling snap parliamentary elections, French President Emmanuel Macron took a political gamble: it resulted in the left-wing alliance, the New Popular Front, winning the most seats, and Marine Le Pen's far-right National Rally failing to obtain a majority. Political analyst Yasser Louati breaks down Macron's crushing electoral defeat and his undemocratic tactics in delaying the appointment of a new Prime Minister until after the Paris Olympics. The results reflect an increasing rejection of Macron's neo-liberalism and anti-Muslim policies, such as his hijab ban for French female athletes at the Olympics.
