France is a pretty big member of NATO. It would matter if they left. Even before they left last time they were at least still aligned with Western Interests. Le Pen could well have changed that.
Anyway, it's academic now. She lost pretty comfortably. I am interested to see what a lot of Macron's rivals do now. Does the left unite into a block? With Le Pen face internal challenges after this election? What will the Republicans and Socialists do after getting hardly any votes this time?
