France against Le Pen. Emmanuel Macron will become the new president

Emmanuel Macron confidently won the presidential election in France, gaining, according to preliminary assessments, about 66 percent of the vote. His rival in the second round, nationalist Marin Le Pen, recognized the defeat, gaining only 34 percent. The main political forces of France united against Le Pen. The success of Macron did not even affect the hack of his mailbox two days before the vote. "Medusa" tells how the presidential election went.

Most of the candidates who left in the first round supported Macron. For him (read - against Le Pen), Francois Fillon and candidate from socialists Benois Amon (fifth result), who came to the third “Republican”, immediately spoke. Jean-Luk Melanshon, who took fourth place with almost 20 percent of the vote, refused to support Macron, but warned his supporters from a “terrible mistake”-voting for Le Pen. The nationalist was supported only by the sixth of Nicolas Dupon-Enian, whom Le Pen promised in return the premier chair.

On the eve of the election, Greenpeace managed to hold a large -scale action in Paris against Le Pen, hanging a banner with the slogan “Freedom, equality, brotherhood” on the Eiffel Tower. The former US President Barack Obama expressed his official support to Macron.

Before the second round, the candidates held fierce debates. Macron accused Le Pen of manipulating the concerns of the French, calling it the "supreme priestess of fears." The nationalist responded with accusations that her rival wants to see France as a subordinate to external forces. According to the results of the surveys , Macron was more frank and convincing in this battle.

The culmination of the pre -election week was the publishing hackers of the correspondence of the headquarters of Macron. The archive of 9 gigabytes was posted on the Internet on May 5 - just two days before the elections and on the eve of the "Day of Silence". The headquarters of Macron recognized that they were hacked, and the French police had already begun an investigation. At the same time, in the technical data of the archive there is instructions that it could be created in the Russian campaign that works with the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation. WikiLeaks, which was the first to widely spread the archive, noticed that this resembles a false trace.

Le Pen immediately recognized the defeat, but called her result “historical”. Macron announced that with his victory “a new page is opening”, related to hope and trust. In an interview with the Chancellor of Germany, an angel Merkel, the elected president called his triumph the victory of “strong and united” Europe. The head of the European Commission Jean-Claude Junker also announced that the French had chosen the “European future”. In the first appeal to the French in a new status, Macron called for "love France."
