Republican MEP François-Xavier Bellamy announced Thursday, February 24, on Europe 1, that he was going to give his sponsorship for the presidential election to Eric Zemmour, “the most late candidate”in order to avoid a “major democratic crisis”. The former head of the European list called “all the elect” who did not give sponsorship “to react”.
“We are a few days away from the end of sponsorships and we have candidates who represent important movements in opinion, and who could be prevented from running for president.”
