Brussels [Belgium], May 27 (ANI): French far-right leader Marine Le Pen declared victory over President Emmanuel Macron on Sunday, as euroskeptic parties made strong gains in the European Union (EU) parliamentary election.

 The voter turnout in this election was estimated around 51 per cent, marking the highest in 20 years, and suggesting more than 200 million citizens across the 28-nation bloc cast their ballot in a poll billed as a battle between populists and pro-European forces, The Times of Israel reported.
