RN trial: Marine Le Pen suspended from participating in the 2027 presidential election

Marine Le Pen's immediate political future, in particular her participation in the 2027 presidential election, is suspended from the decision to be rendered on Monday morning by the Paris court in her presence. The penalty of ineligibility was expected because it is mandatory for the embezzlement of public funds (the offense alleged against Marine Le Pen), but provisional execution was much less so.
After two months of trial and to everyone's surprise, the prosecution had requested against the leader of the extreme right a sentence of five years of ineligibility with provisional execution (applicable immediately, even in the event of an appeal) in addition to five years in prison, including two years in prison, including two years of prison (an adjustable sentence), as well as a 300,000 euros fine.
