She has given the impression of being closer to the day-to-day concerns of French people, especially with regard to sharply rising gas prices and inflation. Despite steering France through the coronavirus crisis, bringing unemployment to its lowest level in a decade and lifting growth, Macron has appeared disengaged, his attention focused on the war in Ukraine rather than on domestic issues. His refusal to debate other candidates has irked some voters. Mood: Three hours before the polls were scheduled to close, voter turnout was 65 percent, the lowest in a French presidential election since 2002.

Analysts expect the opposition leader Shehbaz Sharif to serve as interim prime minister until the election, likely in October. Khan has shown no signs of backing down and is expected to run again. Elected in 2018, Khan was removed after failing to get the economy back on track and, perhaps most crucially, apparently losing the support of the country’s powerful military. While no prime minister in Pakistan has ever completed a full five-year term in office, Khan was the first to be removed in a no-confidence vote. A mixed record: Analysts said that Khan over-promised, backing often contradictory policies: He supported a deregulated, free-market economy but also a welfare state. His foreign policy decisions became a point of contention: He sought to shift away from the U.S. and closer to China and Russia.
