Zemmour Confirms 2027 French Presidential Bid

Eric Zemmour has confirmed he will run in France’s 2027 presidential election, returning to the race after winning 7% in the first round in 2022. The Reconquête leader says he wants to “keep France French” and halt the country’s decline; his proposals include sharply restricting immigration and deporting some foreign nationals, including legally resident people who have been unemployed for more than six months. Early polling puts Zemmour well behind Marine Le Pen and Jean-Luc Mélenchon, who are leading the field in voting intentions.
