Several important footballers from the French team, who will face Spain in the Euro Cup semi-finals, have shared their thoughts on the results of the legislative elections in France. Marine Le Pen's far-right party has emerged as the third major force after winning in the first round, prompting reactions from players like Jules Koundé, Marcus Thuram, and Aurélien Tchouaméni on social media. "The victory of the people," said the midfielder from Madrid, who had called for increased participation to counter the National Regrouping party's rise.
A Barcelona supporter, also politically active, expressed his joy and relief with a message. "The relief matches the concern of recent weeks. It's immense.
Congratulations to all the French citizens who mobilized to prevent the extreme right from governing this beautiful country of France," he shared on his 'X' account after learning of the election results. Ousmané Dembélé simply posted a photo of himself smiling on his Instagram account, while Marcus Thuram, who was also active in opposing Le Pen, said, "Congratulations to all who stood up to the threat hanging over our beautiful country. Long live diversity, long live the Republic, long live France.
The fight goes on.".
