Setback for Macron: French president loses absolute majority in parliament

French President Emmanuel Macron reaches out to “anyone who wants to make the country move forward”. Government spokeswoman Olivia Grégoire said this on Sunday in a first reaction to the “disappointing” results of the parliamentary elections. Turnout in the second round of the parliamentary elections is slightly lower than in the first round last week, according to data from the Ministry of the Interior.
