01 · THE DISPATCH

N12 political analyst Asaf Rozentzweig published an analysis Tuesday afternoon arguing that the cynical interest of right-wing figures in France and beyond is to see Marine Le Pen removed from the election race, as the younger Jordan Bardella presents a stronger chance of winning the presidency. Rozentzweig notes that Le Pen narrowed the gap with Macron in recent elections but never succeeded in the final vote. The analysis comes as French courts continue to issue rulings on Le Pen's eligibility for the 2027 race.
