Ultra -Rechtse Marine Le Pen, Keys to an unprecedented punishment with remarkable political consequences

The sense that condemns the French ultra -right leader Marine Le Pen For distraction of funds from the European Parliament it is not published in the Gallic State, because it goes away from the election career to the favorite of the Presidential 2027, which entails remarkable political consequences.

Preventive disqualification

The great novelty of the punishment against Le Pen is that the five years of disqualification for the exercise of a public office does not automatically detect the presentation of a profession.

The judges of the Coris Correctional Court justified the unusual hardness of that measure in various reasons: the need for cleaning in public life, the volume of fraud or the absence of recognition of the facts, which means a risk of recidivism.

Another reason was that the LE PEN – National Group (RN) financing system, called the National Front (FN), when the facts tried – endangered against democratic neutrality, by attending the party in affordable circumstances for different elections.

2027 presidential elections

The sentence complicates enormously, but does not automatically prevent a hypothetical Le -pen -candidature for the 2027 presidential elections.

According to various lawyers, if Le Pen quickly presents a profession (something that his lawyer has already announced), the new process would need more than a year to start. Others think that a case of this part, which initially needed ten years of instruction, will not be tried again before at least three other years.

Moreover, the new calendar must be determined by the jury members themselves, although the ultra -right leader asks for the emergency procedure.

Electronic bracelet

Le Pen was also sentenced to four years in prison, two of them in firm replacement for house arrest with an electronic bracelet. In this case, the placement of the bracelet is automatically suspended in case of appeal.

Chair in the national meeting

Marine Le Pen will be able to keep its seat in the National Assembly, where she is the spokeswoman for her party, at least until there is a decision in the professional process, according to the case law of the French Constitutional Council for National Members.

But, in the case of early elections, which his party demanded for months, could not recover again. The meeting cannot be resolved before July this year.

But Le Pen loses his position as a member of the Departmental Council or Pas de Calais (Noord), because local chosen charges are governed by a system other than that of national members of parliament.

However, the Ultra -right leader can be appointed as minister or prime minister, who does not depend on elections.

A particularly tough sentence

The judges have proven the existence of an illegal financing system of the extreme right-wing party with money from the European Parliament, conceived by Jean-Marie Le Pen and that his daughter persisted when he landed in the Eurocamara in 2009 and that he used “with authority and determination” since in 2011 he took the reins of the training.

The verdict is of the opinion that, although there was no personal enrichment, his leaders were preferred, who enjoyed the costs of the Eurocamara of their own bodyguards, and for the party itself, that it would have been on the edge of bankruptcy without that income.

The punishment speaks of “double deception”, to the European Parliament, on the one hand, and voters for another, a “systemic” situation that lasted more than 12 years and “of special gravity” because of the high deviation, more than four million euros.
