France's government looks on the brink of collapse. What's next?

The French government is facing a potential collapse following President Emmanuel Macron's decision to call for a snap election after his party's poor performance in the European Parliament elections. This move has led to political instability, with the far-right National Rally (RN) gaining significant ground, potentially positioning them to lead the government if they secure a majority. Prime Minister Gabriel Attal has offered his resignation, but Macron has asked him to stay on temporarily. The situation has raised concerns about France's political future, with fears of a far-right government or a hung parliament. The upcoming elections, set for June 30 and July 7, could result in either a cohabitation scenario where Macron would have to work with a prime minister from an opposing party, or a period of political paralysis if no clear majority is achieved. This political turmoil comes at a time when France is also dealing with economic challenges and social unrest, adding to the complexity of the situation.
