ROME Wholesale Nike Air Force 1 Sage , April 22 (Xinhua) -- Sunday's presidential poll in France will have a spillover effect on Italian politics as the country is also heading to general elections within months, said analysts.
Italian right-wing political groups could get a boost if France's euroskeptic National Front leader Marine Le Pen has a strong showing in the first round. If moderate candidate Emmanuel Macron exceeds expectations, it could be a boon for former Prime Minister Matteo Renzi, who is seeking a political comeback.
Sunday's vote in France is unlikely to be decisive and a second-round runoff is almost inevitable. Besides, the top four candidates -- conservative Francois Fillon Wholesale Nike Air Force 1 , far-left Jean-Luc Melenchon as well as Le Pen and Macron -- are so close that it's almost impossible to predict the outcome, French pollsters say.
Le Pen's success in the first round could help increase support in Italy for the anti-establishment, anti-euro Five-Star Movement led by comedian and activist Beppe Grillo, and especially for the Northern League, a separatist group that would like to revamp the ties between Italy and the European Union Cheap Nike Air Force 1 Sale , an expert has said.
"If Le Pen and the National Front come in first on Sunday, it could energize the Northern League and encourage them to try to play a bigger role going forward," Alessandro Campi, a professor at the University of Perugia and the director of Italy's Institute of Politics, told Xinhua.
"On the other hand Cheap Nike Air Force 1 Store , if Macron exceeds expectations, it could be a boost for Matteo Renzi."
Renzi resigned in December after losing a referendum on proposed constitutional reforms. He is seeking a comeback in the national elections either late this year or early next year.
According to Christian Blasberg, a contemporary history professor at Rome's LUISS University, a strong performance for Le Pen and her National Front could also send a strong signal in other ways.
"It is not really clear whether the anti-establishment wave that resulted in the Brexit vote (in Britain) and the victory of Donald Trump in the U.S. last year is running out of speed or not," Blasberg told Xinhua. "It seems like it may have paused in Europe now. But if Le Pen does well Cheap Nike Air Force 1 Shoes , it could show that this trend is still strong."
Gian Franco Gallo, a political analyst, said groups in Italy calling for the country to reject the euro could see their ranks grow if Le Pen and the National Front finish strong.
"It is likely that if the National Front does well, its high-profile criticisms of the euro currency will legitimize that view in the eyes of some," Gallo told Xinhua.
Few analysts predict Le Pen will be elected president. Even if she makes it to the second round scheduled for May 7 Cheap Nike Air Force 1 Free Shipping , the most likely scenario will be that backers of the defeated candidates will unite behind her rival.
That is what happened 15 years ago when Le Pen's father, Jean-Marie Le Pen, lost to Jacques Chirac by a big margin in the second round.

NEW YORK, April 30 (Xinhua) -- From the deep-blue city of New York to one of the reddest states of Tennessee in the southeastern region of the United States Cheap Nike Air Force 1 Online , supporters for U.S. President Donald Trump still pin high hopes on him to "Make America Great Again" as his administration welcomed its first 100-day mark.
"We are here to make our voices heard. I believe President Trump can deliver real changes to America," Jack Jia, head of the New York branch of a U.S. group named Chinese Americans for Trump, told Xinhua at a rally near the Times Square on Saturday afternoon.
The 50-odd-year old Jia, who has lived in New York for 17 years Cheap Nike Air Force 1 Clearance , was among dozens of Chinese Americans wearing red T-shirts and holding banners of "Make America Great Again," and "Support Trump's 100-day action plan, welcome to the Trump era!"
Jia, a jeweler originally from Dalian of Liaoning Province in northeastern China, said that their grassroots volunteer group was officially registered to support Trump during the heated election campaign last year.
"Trump's policies including stress on law and order and tax cuts are appealing to me and many Chinese Americans across the country Cheap Nike Air Force 1 Wholesale ," Jia said."We are legal immigrants. We work hard and we make contributions to this country. We Chinese do not want to be bullied. We have to be united to take part in the politics."
During the election, many Chinese Americans were angry about the Democratic Party's support for an affirmative action that allows more people from underprivileged backgrounds to get a place at university. Some students with Asian backgrounds say it has unfairly undermined their efforts to get accepted by a college, even if they have higher grades.
A couple of non-Chinese Americans also showed up in the Trump-supporting rally, rarely seen in a city where over 90 percent of people voted for Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
"He (Trump) has the potential to be the greatest president in U.S. history, if he is able to revive the American system Cheap Nike Air Force 1 China ," said Daniel Burke, New York representative of The LaRouche movement, which calls for a reform of the world financial system to encourage investment in the real economy and curb financial speculation.
"I disagree that the Americans are divided (out of the election). Americans are unified ... They want real economic development in the U.S.
