Le Pen (Jean-Marie)

Jean-Marie Le Pen is a French political figure known for founding the National Front (now National Rally), a far-right political party in France. He gained prominence in the 1980s and 1990s for his nationalist, anti-immigration, and eurosceptic views. Le Pen’s rhetoric often sparked controversy due to its provocative and nationalist tone. His political influence helped shape debates on immigration and national identity in France. Despite being a controversial figure, he remained active in politics for decades, influencing the far-right landscape in France. His daughter, Marine Le Pen, later led the party, attempting to soften its image while maintaining core ideological principles.
