Prigozhin has worn out the patience of much of the Kremlin establishment but maintains the backing of Yuri Kovalchuk, a close friend of Putin and a power broker in Moscow, people close to the Kremlin told us. Story w/ @tggrove and @benoitfaucon

Instead of bringing "clarification," Macron’s snap elections have driven France into a political fog. Avoiding a hung parliament will be hard in a lower house divided in three by large blocs with diametrically opposed agendas. w/ @NBisserbe

Macron’s one time mentor, Alain Minc, has strong words on the “historic error” France’s president has committed by calling early elections. He says Macron is living in a world of “fiction” to think he has a chance of winning. Post-election, the best France can hope for is chaos.
Alain #Minc fulmine depuis dimanche. Pour lui, la dissolution de l’Assemblée nationale est une "erreur historique". @Barbara_Stec et @ArnaudFaura l’ont rencontré. @Caroline_Roux #cdanslair
