The Front National

The Front National, now known as National Rally (Rassemblement National), is a right-wing political party in France that advocates for strong national sovereignty, stricter immigration controls, and traditional cultural values. It is known for its Eurosceptic stance, opposing deeper European integration, and emphasizes law and order. Founded in 1972, the party has evolved from a nationalist movement to a major political force advocating for secure borders, economic protectionism, and preserving France’s identity. Its policies often generate controversy, balancing concerns about national security with debates over multiculturalism and European Union relations.
