Following President Emmanuel Macron’s decision to dissolve the National Assembly, French citizens will head to the polls once more on June 30 (first round) and July 7 (second round) to elect a new parliament. Radio France Internationale (RFI), France 24, and Monte Carlo Doualiya (MCD) are poised to deliver a comprehensive, multilingual coverage of this pivotal legislative election, accessible via television, radio, and digital platforms. With correspondents positioned at party campaign headquarters and various constituencies, France Médias Monde’s channels will ensure that the voices of candidates and voters are heard, provide detailed reporting on the election results, and gather initial reactions from both within France and internationally.

The three media outlets will offer dedicated special editions, debates, reports, and investigations to thoroughly examine the voting process.
