Last Tuesday, July 7, 2026, the judicial panel of the Court of Appeal in Paris issued a second-instance verdict in the proceedings against Marine Le Pen and 11 other co-accused from her far-right National Rally (RN) party for "false assistants", RN MEPs. We are talking about a well-developed system of embezzlement of EU public funds in favor of the petty-proprietary party interests of the innermost circle around Le Pen herself. Political analysts, as well as legal and public law specialists, were not afraid to call the verdict "historic".
