The former leader of the National Front, which became a National Grouping, Jean-Marie Le Pen deplored in the Sunday newspaper “certain mediatic absence” of the RN deputies, inviting them to “react” by being “aggressive with power.”
“There is a certain media absence of the RN. Is it voluntary? It’s not safe,” said the 94-year-old co-founder of the FN.
Being “aggressive” against the majority
Annoyed because “when we refer to the right, we constantly hear about the Republicans, but never about the RN”, which nevertheless has a record of 89 deputies, Jean-Marie Le Pen estimated that “in politics it is not enough to exist”. , it is necessary to make it known.”
“I find them quiet. They have to react,” she urged.
Asked about the RN’s strategy of maintaining a “reasonable position” in the Assembly, Jean-Marie Le Pen called on the troops to “be aggressive with respect to power.”
Emmanuel Macron “will have to face a series of important difficulties during the second (quinquennium). And that is where an opposition formation such as the RN can appear as an alternative,” he argued, recalling that “the objective of political action is the exercise of power. “.
No preference between Aliot and Bardella
“The executives that emerged during these legislative elections must prepare for it. Eighty-nine deputies in the National Assembly, it is still not power, but almost”, he stressed.
At the beginning of the campaign for the succession of his daughter Marine Le Pen at the head of the party, Jean-Marie Le Pen indicated that he would not take a position between the two candidates, MEP Jordan Bardella, and the mayor of Perpignan Louis Aliot. .
“I will not support anyone. The members will choose. I have no preferences,” she insisted.
