TOP5 4555 Proces des assistants parlementaires Marine Le Pen reste en lice pour 2027

In France, the Paris Court of Appeal upheld Marine Le Pen's conviction in the case concerning the National Front's European parliamentary assistants, while reducing her ban from holding public office to 45 months, 30 of which are suspended. This decision, in principle, allows her to run in the 2027 presidential election. However, the leader of the National Rally was sentenced to three years in prison, one year of which will be under electronic monitoring, a measure that could complicate the organization of a potential campaign. Marine Le Pen announced this evening that she will indeed be a candidate in the next presidential election.
