Jean-Luc Melenchon, the leader of the "Unconquered France" alliance of the left, has already said that President Emmanuel Macron should invite the New People's Front to govern the country.

In the first round, the National Union and its allies won the most votes, with a significant margin over the pro-presidential bloc.
