Far-right victory in France would put entire EU at risk, MEP Keller says

Fabienne Keller, a Member of the European Parliament from the Renaissance party, said this in an interview with Ukrinform . “Given the current polling, the main task is to prevent a second round featuring Le Pen and Mélenchon. We must prevent a final matchup between the far right and the far left. We are seeing politics become increasingly polarized in recent years,” she said. Keller emphasized that the prospect of the National Rally coming to power was extremely concerning to her, particularly because of the party’s plans to revise the Constitution. “They have already announced that, once in power, they will revise de Gaulle’s Constitution and a number of principles that have withstood many extremely difficult political situations.
