Caused more instability than peace: Macron on early-poll decision

French President Emmanuel Macron said that his decision to call early parliamentary elections in June "produced more instability than peace, and I fully own up to that". "The dissolution caused more divisions in...Assembly than solutions for...French people," he added. The polls resulted in a hung parliament with a big increase in far-right lawmakers which diluted Macron's power.
