In political news, Putin’s shadow hangs over the presidential campaign, just five weeks before the first round of the presidential election. Saturday March 5 and Sunday March 6, Marine Le Pen, Éric Zemmour joined by Marion Maréchal and Jean-Luc Mélenchon, were in a meeting. These three candidates, criticized for their pro-Putin position, took the opportunity to defend themselves from these attacks.
A short walk in the sun, Saturday March 5, on the beaches of Camargue, for Marine Le Pen. But very quickly, the candidate of the RN is questioned by a woman about Vladimir Putin. The candidate denies not having a conversation with the Russian president. However, in 2017, one month before the first round, Marine Le Pen proudly displayed herself with the master of the Kremlin and even confided her admiration. An embarrassing image, but not enough to doubt its activists.
Éric Zemmour is also in turmoil. Like Marine Le Pen, the former polemicist is overtaken by his pro-Russian positions. He even said in 2018, “dreaming of a French Poutine”. At a meeting on Sunday March 6 in Toulon (var)he tried to justify himself. Jean-Luc Mélenchon is also accused of ambiguity vis-à-vis Vladimir Poutine. Sunday afternoon in Lyon (Rhone)the candidate of rebellious France said he was the victim of a caricature.
