Marine Le Pen is not far from thanking Emmanuel Macron for participating in the European campaign. The president’s speech on Europe on Thursday at the Sorbonne will also “mobilize” the voters of the National Rally, she estimated on Sunday.
“In reality, there will be a double effect. I think that Emmanuel Macron is entering the campaign precisely to mobilize his voters. But this speech, the content of which I can perceive, given what I know of Emmanuel Macron’s thinking, this speech will also mobilize our own voters,” declared the leader of the RN deputies during an interview given to BFMTV from Mayotte.
Le Pen wants to debate with Macron
“I hope that Emmanuel Macron will be present in this campaign. I hope that he will also respect the rules for financing electoral campaigns because even the President of the Republic is not above these rules,” added Marine Le Pen, who said she ready to debate with the Head of State their “radically different visions of the European Union”.
The one who is also once again a presidential candidate also mentioned a European Union project wanted by Emmanuel Macron and his supporters in which “the President of the Commission becomes President of the European Union” and “would appoint the commissioners to the place of nations.” “Besides, that’s what Emmanuel Macron wants, it’s his future retirement.”
The RN dominates the polls
Marine Le Pen also confirmed Jordan Bardella’s desire to request the dissolution of the National Assembly if the RN came first on June 9. “If it turns out that the President of the Republic is very much behind the first opposition force, he must also draw the consequences. Because then a political crisis begins and the Constitution provides how to resolve a political crisis: by returning to the polls, by turning to the French, by asking them for their opinion so that their government corresponds to the will of the greatest number. , she argued.
With a score around 30%, the RN list, led by RN president Jordan Bardella, largely dominates in the polls the list of the majority led by Valérie Hayer (Renaissance), while less than a point separated them during of the previous European elections in 2019 (23.34% for the RN against 22.42% for the presidential majority).
