In this video, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Glenn Greenwald talks to political commentator Arnaud Bertrand about the latest political developments in France, the consequences of the parliamentary elections, from which a left-wing coalition emerged as the largest faction in the National Assembly, but without an absolute majority, and Macron’s refusal to appoint a prime minister from the victorious coalition, which could be seen as a disregard for democracy.

This video was produced by System Update and published on their YouTube channel on the 5th of September, 2024.
