Doesn't bode well for MleP after reiterating her support for Moscow’s takeover of Crimea – which she referred to as a “reattachment”. FFS.

At least MleP and her mob lack a seat on the Board at WHO. So far

I cannot remember the comedian who said this, but I still keep saying it to myself every time I hear her name….

Marine Le Pen - neither a marine nor a pen…. It’s just lies.

I think this is deflection tactics from Macron who is very unpopular in France. As for the photo of Le Pen with Putin, here is one of Macron with Putin in 2017. I know ordinary people in France and they hate Macron.

I seem to remember a lot of people on here wanted Le Pen to win.

I'd probably be saying it was deflection tactics too as it's a bit more palatable than accepting you (the royal you not you personally as I've no idea) were waving the flag for someone echoing Kremlin propaganda.

I would suggest that trying to link everthing/anyone you don't like with Putin/Kremlin is indicative of having a very low IQ - playground level in fact.

I'm not linking anything it was literally the conclusion of a cross-party parliamentary inquiry.

Deflection tactics you say?

I think she's basically in the same camp as Trump, Orban, and various other far-right despots.

It's kinda weird how those who profess a fear of being controlled by some shadowy world organisation have no problems with absolute power being held by authoritarian dictatorships.

Not as much as they hate Le Pen. He beat her by more than 10% in the election in my commune. He isn't popular and is seen as elitist. She is just viewed as extremely unpleasant.

Unless I am misunderstanding something, it appears that Le Pen's Rassemblement National (RN) party were the ones who pushed for, and demanded this independent enquiry, in order to try to clear their name.

I fail to see how this was a deflection tactic from Macron if it was demanded by RN themselves?

Even if somehow the timing of the report was a deflection tactic, it wouldn't change the outcome. The report says what it says, and everyone should clearly be extremely wary of the true intentions of RN and other such political organisations.

I don't think you're misunderstanding anything.

Kind of makes you wonder why so many people were so keen for her to win but I am a very low IQ individual.
