French far-right candidate Marine Le Pen, too close to Moscow? • FRANCE 24 English

FRANCE24, 11 Apr 2022
Opponents accuse Marine Le Pen of being too close to Moscow. Her party received a bank loan from a Russian bank in 2014 and she was hosted by Russian President Vladimir Putin at the Kremlin shortly before the 2017 presidential election. She has condemned Russia's invasion of Ukraine, but says Moscow could be an ally again post-war.
