Präsidentschaftswahl 2027
Appearing on LCI Monday evening, former Prime Minister Edouard Philippe reaffirmed his resolve to pursue his 2027 presidential candidacy to the end, while conditioning it on his re-election as mayor of Le Havre in March 2026. He also proposed creating a 'narco emergency state' to combat narcotrafficking with exceptional measures. These statements come as he rejects any right-wing primary and remains ahead in center-right polls.
