Presidential Election 2027: Attal Criticizes Le Pen's Focus on Immigration, Calls Bardella's 'Smoke Screen' Fallen

French presidential candidate Gabriel Attal launched a sharp critique against the National Rally party on Thursday, particularly targeting Marine Le Pen and Jordan Bardella. Speaking at a debate organized by Medef in Paris, Attal characterized Le Pen's political agenda with a concise and critical phrase: 'Madame Le Pen is subject, verb, immigration.'

Attal further asserted that the political strategy employed by Jordan Bardella, the president of the National Rally, has been definitively revealed. He described Bardella's approach as a 'smoke screen' that has now 'definitively fallen,' implying a lack of substance or transparency in his political positioning.

The comments come as various candidates position themselves for the 2027 presidential election. The debate, attended by business leaders, provided a platform for candidates to present their economic and social proposals. Attal's remarks highlight the intensifying political discourse and the strategic attacks between leading figures ahead of the election.
