In France, Marine Le Pen’s extreme-right Rassemblement National party earned 30 seats with main candidate Jordan Bardella, and Eric Zemmour’s extreme-right Reconquete! party five seats with Marion Marechal, at the 6/9 European elections. The extreme-right received almost 37 percent of the total vote.

Following the results, French president Emmanuel Macron decided to dissolve the French parliament. The decision has generated considerable political turmoil in France as everyone is now preparing for the parliamentary election. Among other upheavals, Marechal took steps to join Rassemblement National, which scored far better results than Reconquete. Zemmour called Marechal's actions "treason" and expelled her from Reconquete.

Fascists and white supremacists have commented on the dispute between Zemmour and Marechal, using antisemitic stereotypes to describe Zemmour. The full report provides a sample.
