A strong rally for the National Rally. In an interview given to Sunday newspaperFabrice Leggeri, who headed the EU agency responsible for border control (Frontex), between 2015 and 2022, announces that he is joining Jordan Bardella’s list for the European elections. “The RN has a concrete plan and the capacity to carry it out. We are determined to combat migratory overwhelm, which the European Commission and the Eurocrats do not consider as a problem, but rather as a project: I can attest to this”justifies the enarque in the columns of the weekly. “My goal is to put my experience and expertise at the service of the French.”
Regularly accused of tolerating illegal pushbacks of migrants, the former French boss of the European agency was forced to resign following “the investigation by Olaf, the European Anti-Fraud Office, against three of its members including the executive director”notably for his management of Frontex.
