Marine Le Pen, the leader of France’s far-right National Rally party, has filed an appeal against a recent embezzlement conviction that currently prevents her from running in the upcoming presidential election. The ruling has significant implications for the French political landscape, as Le Pen remains a prominent figure in national politics.
Her legal team argues that the conviction was unjust and is seeking to overturn the ban, keeping open the possibility of her participation in the 2027 presidential race.
The appeal marks the latest chapter in a long-standing legal and political battle for Le Pen, who has previously faced scrutiny over campaign financing and other allegations.
