Marin Le Pen, the leader of France’s far-right party, faces severe legal challenges as Paris prosecutors push for a five-year suspended prison sentence. She is accused of falsely claiming parliamentary aides in the European Parliament who were, in fact, working for her party. If prosecutors’ demands are accepted, Le Pen could be barred from running in the 2027 presidential elections. Denying the allegations, she asserts that the move is an attempt to block her candidacy, declaring critics “blind and deaf” to the situation.
