| Description | Defeated French far-right presidential candidate Marine Le Pen will stand in parliamentary elections in June, her party announced on Thursday, underlining how she intends to remain at the frontline of politics.
The 53-year-old failed in a bid to unseat President Emmanuel Macron last weekend, but achieved a historic score of 41.5 percent.
The head of her Rassemblement National (National Rally, or RN) party, Jordan Bardella, confirmed that Le Pen would stand again for her constituency in northern France for the parliamentary elections, scheduled for 12 and 19 June.
"Marine Le Pen will stand for another term in the Pas-de-Calais," Bardella told reporters. |
