Bardella reiterates full support for Le Pen's presidential bid

Jordan Bardella, president of the Rassemblement National (RN), has reaffirmed his "total support" and "total friendship" for Marine Le Pen, expressing his strong hope that she will be elected president in the upcoming election. Bardella made these remarks during a rural banquet event in Liévin, Pas-de-Calais.

"I want to thank Marine for her friendship and for her trust, for her loyalty," Bardella stated. "I want to tell her again my total support, my total friendship, to tell her that I committed myself to her in politics, to see her elected president of the Republic. And I hope to see her elected president of the Republic in a few months."

Bardella's public declaration of support comes at a critical juncture, as Marine Le Pen's eligibility to stand for the presidency is currently under judicial review. A court judgment is expected soon, which will determine whether she can participate in the presidential race.

The RN leadership duo, Le Pen and Bardella, were present at the banquet. Bardella's unequivocal backing underscores the party's continued alignment behind Le Pen as their leading candidate, despite the ongoing legal uncertainties surrounding her potential candidacy.
