France is a democracy - whilst I do not agree with the way one bunch of parties colluded to prevent a party they (or you?) don't like from winning a general-election, the voting was under France's own system, there is no suspicion of irregular voting, the Communist Party is not "in control" but even if there is a Communist Party of France, even if it did put up candidates and won votes... frankly it is France's business. Not yours, not mine, not NATO's.
It is not NATO's policy to go barging into a NATO member's country to try to overturn its elections!
It might be as well to consider though that in a democracy, a hard-line party of any ideology will tend to encourage hard-line parties of opposite ideology.
(I am not French, do not live in France and have no connection with the country.)
