Paris, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 29th Jun, 2020 ) :France's Greens were on course for major gains in the second round of regional elections on Sunday expected to deal a blow to the ruling party of President Emmanuel Macron, projections showed.
The Green candidate was well ahead of his right-wing rival to be mayor of Lyon, while the Greens were also in close contention to win key cities Bordeaux and Lille, the estimates indicated.
