Rassemblement National (formerly Front National)

The Rassemblement National (RN), formerly known as the Front National, is a French political party that primarily advocates for nationalist, anti-immigration, and eurosceptic policies. Founded in 1972, it seeks to prioritize French interests, promote national sovereignty, and reduce immigration. The party often emphasizes issues like immigration control, law and order, and preserving France’s cultural identity. While it has gained significant support, it is also viewed as controversial because of its hardline stances and historical links to populist and nationalist movements. The RN aims to challenge mainstream politics and represent voters dissatisfied with traditional parties' approaches to these issues.
