- Le Pen says she won’t run in 2027 if ordered to wear an electronic bracelet
Marine Le Pen, a French far-right leader, says she will not run for president in 2027 if a Paris appeals court orders her to wear an electronic bracelet over alleged misuse of EU funds. The court will deliver a verdict on the case, which involves charges of misusing EU Parliament funds between 2004 and 2016. If barred from running, her protege Jordan Bardella would likely take her place.
