French politicians and world leaders reacted to the results of parliamentary elections on Sunday after a coalition of the French left that quickly banded together to beat a surging far right won the most seats in parliament but not a majority. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said he was "happy" and called the result a "disappointment" for Moscow.
The country was on course for a hung parliament with the New Popular Front, a broad leftist coalition, on track to win the most seats, ahead of President Emmanuel Macron's centrist Ensemble (Together) coalition and the far-right National Rally.
