Six months before a presidential election that could bring to power France's first far-right government since World War II, the country, rocked by months of protests and institutional paralysis, is looking for a savior. And who knows, maybe it is in the person of a man who has never been involved in politics, five-time Olympic judo champion Teddy Riner. Who is able to occupy the presidential chair in the Elysee Palace? Let's figure it out together with the Knesset member. The French political system is going through its most dangerous period since the founding of the Fifth Republic in 1958. The dissolution of the parliament carried out by Emmanuel Macron in June 2024 did not bring the desired clarity. Everything happened the other way around, he put the country in a situation that the French themselves call "torture": the voters want change, but are afraid of those who promise it, and at the same time they punish the current government, but do not trust the alternative. It turns out that they long for order, but reject the institutions created to maintain it.
