Kylian Mbappé has labeled the first round of French elections as “catastrophic” after the far-right National Rally (RN) led with 33.15% of the vote. The French soccer captain urged the public to vote in the upcoming second round, stressing the urgency to prevent the far-right from gaining power. President Macron’s snap elections have caused political uncertainty, with his party falling to third place. If RN wins, it would be the first far-right government in France since WWII. Mbappé hopes for high voter turnout to change the outcome.
