The left-wing coalition consists of 71 seats for France's Insubordination, 64 seats for the Socialist Party, 33 seats for the Environmentalist Party, 9 seats for the Communist Party, and 3 seats for Others. Disobedient France is a group led by Jean-Luc Mélenchon, known as the ``French Bernie Sanders'' (a left-wing US Democratic Party politician), with prominent anti-EU and anti-Israel views.
As expected, the left-wing coalition did not include withdrawal from the EU or NATO in its manifesto. However, in terms of economic policy, they have released a manifesto that largely adopts this disobedient French opinion.
1. Repeal the Pension Reform Act of 2023 and return pension payments from age 64 to 60. 2. Increase in public servant salaries and welfare benefits 3. 14% increase in minimum wage 4. Freezing prices of basic foods and energy
sang. According to private estimates, these costs are expected to exceed 150 billion euros. The government is seeking financial resources by reinstating the wealth tax and tightening taxes on large corporations, but this appears to be completely impossible.

French President Emmanuel Macron on the 26th ruled out the possibility of appointing a prime minister from the leftist coalition New Popular Front (NFP), and announced that he would begin new talks with political parties on the 27th.
Macron said he would continue to consult with representatives of each party, considering that he would face a vote of no confidence from all other parties as soon as an NFP-led government is formed.
The NFP is comprised of a wide range of political parties, from the center-left Socialist Party to the rapidly growing left-wing "Indomitable France."
Macron's announcement suggested that the political vacuum following the July general election, which resulted in a ``hung parliament'' in which no side had a majority, will not be resolved soon.
