The two finalists of the French presidential election met on Wednesday evening for the final televised debate before Sunday’s vote. For the first time in French history, the two candidates do not represent the traditional parties in French politics,, and this was reflected in their debate, which saw very non traditional forms of discussion. The debate was regarded by many as an opportunity to exchange personal insults and attacks on each other, which both candidates did admirably, with Macron calling Le Pen a liar, and Le Pen fiercely attacking Macron by saying that France will be led by a woman no matter what, either herself, or Merkel, whom Macron appears very close to.

The zones are aimed at separating notorious terrorist groups like Daesh and Jabhat Fateh al-Sham formerly known as Nusra Front from other groups fighting the Syrian government. The de-escalation agreement also aims to ban weapons in certain zones, allow for the restoration of basic services and facilitate the return of refugees.
