“When are they going to stop playing the mourners?” President LR des Hauts-de-France, Xavier Bertrand, denounced the attitude of the national demonstration, with which he maintains reciprocal hostility, this Friday, July 11 in BFMTV-RMC, the day after the searches that took place at the headquarters of the extreme right party.
This took place after Justice opened an investigation a year ago for suspicions of irregularity regarding the financing of RN campaigns for the presidential elections and the legislative elections of 2022, as well as the Europeans of 2024.
“Conspiracy theory”
Xavier Bertrand first pointed to Jean-Philippe Tanguy. Present in its place the previous day in the “face to face” of Apolline de Malherbe, the deputy of the RN had questioned justice, as the part of the extreme right did by maintaining other cases, speaking of “espionage”.
“Mr. Tanguy was collecting his set. He was there to complain and, once again, the conspiracy theory,” Xavier Bertrand broke, before continuing: “He should not believe in the coincidences. This still does many cases for which the leaders of the national demonstration were convicted.”
And to cite the issue of “campaign kits” that were called that for which the RN had been sentenced to 250,000 euros fine for the hidden of the abuse of corporate goods, in 2024.
Xavier Bertrand also referred to the “condemnation in the first instance of Marine Le Pen” for, among other things, a five -year inevitability prayer with immediate execution, for embezzlement of public funds, within the framework of the trial of parliamentary assistants of the National Front.
The RN says that “it has nothing to blame”
Then, returning to the case that was subject to searches in the siege of the RN, he declared: “Here is the impression that it is the Bardella system (the president of the party, note) that is in question. It is still a common feature. The national rally, its leaders, has a problem with public financing, with public money. It is time that they explain it.”
In addition to the cases mentioned by Xavier Bertrand, the RN and its former political family in the European Parliament are attacked by an investigation carried out by European prosecution, in relation to suspicions of financial irregularities.
“Everything will be done to prevent us from accessing power,” said Jordan Bardella on Wednesday night, after searches that went to the distant part, denouncing “harassment” and “political and financial implacability.”
“We have nothing to hide, and absolutely nothing to reproach ourselves,” he said during an informative press session in the European Parliament in Strasbourg.
In return, Xavier Bertrand accused the RN of wanting to create “a smoke curtain to present themselves as victims who are not.” His conclusion: RN officials “cannot govern our country and reliable.”
