Charlotte Baris: Since June 9 and the announcement of the dissolution, the scenario of cohabitation with the National Rally has been on the table. A hypothesis that goes hand in hand with a phrase regularly heard among some voters: “we have never tried the RN”. And it is true that in France, since the beginning of the Fifth Republic, the extreme right has never been in power. Unlike other countries in Europe.
Among our close neighbours, we can cite the Italian Giorgia Meloni, who has been leading the country since 2022, with her Fratelli d’Italia party. In Hungary, we no longer need to introduce the Prime Minister, Viktor Orban, leader of Fidesz and close to Vladimir Putin. Or Poland, whose Law and Justice Party, the PiS, governed from 2015 to 2023.
So at L’Express, we were interested in the record of these parties in power in Europe. And above all, we wanted to compare it to the program of the National Rally. What are the consequences for a nation of a policy led by the extreme right? This is the question we examine in this episode.
