The former socialist president Francois Hollandewho occupied the Elysée between 2012 and 2017, has expressed satisfaction with the agreement as “the left has a duty to unite” to stop the far right.
“Since the liberation (from the Nazi occupation in 1944/45), the far right has never been so close to coming to power,” Hollande warned in an interview on the TF1 channel.
That possibility “creates a hazard” and “it is not only a problem for France, but also for France’s image and for the proposals that France can make in Europe,” he stressed. “We must do everything possible to prevent the far right from coming to power in France,” Hollande emphasized.
The name of the union is that of the Popular Fronta coalition formed in 1935 by several left-wing parties in response to the expansion of fascism in Europe and which won an absolute majority in the Chamber of Deputies in the 1936 elections, although it disappeared in 1938.
