A new episode in the French political soap opera has been playing out since the legislative elections in June, marked by the victory of the New Popular Front, but without producing a clear majority. On Thursday, July 18, 2024, Macronist Yaël Braun-Pivet was re-elected as President of the National Assembly. With 220 votes, in a tight third round, she was only a few votes ahead of communist André Chassaigne. This was thanks in particular to the support of the Republican Right group.
