The RN is strengthening. The former director of Frontex, the EU agency responsible for border control, announced in an interview with JDD published Saturday evening, that he is joining the National Rally (RN) for the European elections in June and will appear in third place on Jordan Bardella’s list.
“The RN has a concrete plan and the capacity to carry it out. We are determined to combat migratory overwhelm, which the European Commission and the Eurocrats do not consider as a problem, but rather as a project: I can testify to this,” Fabrice Leggeri declared to the Journal du Dimanche.
This 55-year-old senior French civil servant, an enarque and normalien, held the management of Frontex from 2015 to 2022, before resigning, while he was the subject of an investigation by the European Anti-Fraud Office. “My goal is to put my experience and expertise at the service of the French. Having led Frontex for almost seven years and worked for the State for around thirty years, particularly in the areas of security and immigration management, this decision is very consistent,” he told JDD.
Bardella tops polls
“The European elections of June 9 represent a unique opportunity to put France and Europe back on the right path. This is why I am joining the list led by Jordan Bardella,” he added.
Jordan Bardella, head of the list and president of the RN, is currently leading all the polls for this European election, around 30%, with around ten points ahead of the Macronist majority.
