According to this source, Ihe niece of Marine Le Pen will be present on Sunday at the Toulon (Var) meeting of Eric Zemmour.
At the end of January, the president of the National Rally Marine Le Pen, also a presidential candidate, had judged “brutal, violent”, that Marion Maréchal is considering joining Eric Zemmour in the race for the Elysée. The former Front National deputy then told the Figaro what “leaned for Eric Zemmour” but there was also “a family matter” with his aunt.
Asked Tuesday on BFMTV, Marine Le Pen said to herself “convinced” that Marion Maréchal was going to join the campaign of his far-right rival. “It saddens me personally and it plunges me into an abyss of perplexity politically” because “I’m the only one who can win against Emmanuel Macron”said Marine Le Pen.
In recent weeks, several elected officials, including a leading member of the RN, MEP Nicolas Bay, and the party’s only senator Stéphane Ravier, both ideologically close to Marion Maréchal, have joined Eric Zemmour’s campaign.
