Marine Le Pen confirma su candidatura presidencial para 2027

Far-right leader Marine Le Pen announced she will run for a fourth term as President of France, despite her confirmed conviction for misusing European public funds, which carries a one-year prison sentence with the possibility of serving it under house arrest with an electronic monitoring bracelet. The far-right leader, who had previously ruled out running if she would have to wear such a device, reversed her decision after meeting with the leadership of her party, the National Rally.
