France Staves Off the Far Right—This Time

France Staves Off the Far Right—This Time

France’s far-right looked ready to take control of the National Assembly after the first round of snap elections. But when the dust settled after the second round, the left and center had held.

Guest: Harrison Stetler, freelance journalist based in Paris.
