Mbappe calls on young French people to vote against 'extremist' in unusual political message

French football team captain Kylian Mbappe delivered an unusual political message ahead of France's Euro 2024 Group D opener at the pre-match media conference on Sunday (June 16) as concerns regarding the country's upcoming snap election took centre stage.
 
Head coach Didier Deschamps defended his players’ right to express their political views.
 
Earlier over the weekend, anti-racism groups joined French unions and a brand-new left-wing coalition in protests in Paris and across France on Saturday against the surging nationalist far right as frenzied campaigning is underway ahead of snap parliamentary elections.
 
In Paris, those who fear that the elections will produce France's first far-right government since World War II gathered at Place de la Republique before marching through eastern Paris.
 
New elections for the lower house of parliament were set in two rounds, for June 30 and July 7. Macron remains president until 2027 and in charge of foreign policy and defense.
