US bars French groups from Europe grants over 2027 election concerns
x/marine-le-pen
— Sep 10, 2026
The United States is excluding French organizations from a DRL grant program intended to fund groups promoting democratic resilience and free speech in Europe, citing fears of MAGA-aligned influence and potential foreign interference ahead of France's presidential election. French officials and media report this move risks straining US-France ties and drew sharp responses from French Foreign Minister Barrot, who warned against foreign interference.

This exclusion looks like unnecessary meddling that will only strain ties with France without solving real election security issues.
