Exit poll shows left wing coalition on top in France’s legislative election

France has voted in the second round of snap legislative polls initiated by President Emmanuel Macron following his centrist alliance's significant defeat in the European elections. Exit polls indicate that the left wing coalition has successfully prevented the far right National Rally from gaining power. The National Popular Front (NFP) is set to become the largest party in parliament, relegating the National Rally, which led in the first round, to third place. Projections suggest the NFP will secure 172-192 seats, while the National Rally is expected to gain 132-152 seats, and President Emmanuel Macron's centrist coalition 150-170 seats, resulting in no coalition achieving a majority.

Excerpt from: *_'The Political System of Israel - Not a Democracy'_* , _German Institute for Global and Area Studies_ _With no other country in the Middle East does Germany maintain such close relations as it does with Israel. This is often justified on the grounds of shared democratic values. However, is the political system of Israel really that of a democracy? This question is a controversial one within academia. Giving an exact answer depends on the underlying concept of democracy drawn on._ _According to a broad concept of democracy, which promulgates the equality of all citizens as a defining feature hereof, Israel is at best a flawed democracy and at worst no democracy at all._ _On the basis of a minimalist concept of democracy, which limits itself to a few core criteria such as freedom of expression and freedom to form and join organisations as well as the right to vote, Israel is a democracy within the borders of 1949._ _However, following the June War of 1967, the space over which Israel would rule now extended to East Jerusalem, the Golan Heights, the West Bank, and the Gaza Strip._ _If a minimalist concept of democracy is consistently applied to the entire territory governed by Israel, a clear conclusion is to be drawn: After the conquest of the June War, Israel - which had just taken an important step towards democratic consolidation by abolishing military law in 1966 - took the path of de-democratisation in the last third of the twentieth century. This path then was completed in the twenty-first._
