Pablo Pombo, political analyst for ‘El Confidencial’, has analysed the results of the elections in France on laSexta, in which the cordon sanitaire has stopped the far right of Marine Le Pen, and pointed out in this regard that “there is an iron law that the extreme right suffers, and that is that the closer they are to power, the harder the blow ends up being in the end.” “They have had a very bad last week of campaigning, with image errors. All the polls gave the victory to the extreme right, but the republican front has worked, there has been a massive mobilisation and all forecasts have been altered“, has underlined.

In this regard, Pombo said that “Macron, who was criticised by everyone for his decision, not only does not come out of this game of Russian roulette damaged, but he can come out of it benefiting.” “In this way, The bubble of the extreme right is bursting and everything will go through Mélenchon“, said the analyst, who stressed that “one thing that needs to be paid attention to is how the vote within the left is going,” since, according to him, “it is possible that the entire map will be reconfigured.”

However, Pablo Pombo has warned that “the results in the first round mean that the extreme right has taken root,” something that, he has argued, “we do not have to accept and think of as something normal,” after which he has pointed out that “Mélenchon is at the other extreme,” so he considers that “Democracies are going to extremes and the systemic parties are losing strength.” “This It has to make us reflect“Beyond the fact that we are happy tonight, this is good news for France and also for our economy and for the Europeans,” he said.
