"We are threatened by a widespread war, we are threatened by a spectacular change in the climate, and now we have an economic and social crisis approaching."
"I think we're going to beat them hands down."
"Some believe Mélenchon could manage to reach the second round for the first time if the centrist vote were split between several candidates."
Jean-Luc Mélenchon, leader of La France Insoumise, confirmed his candidacy for the 2027 presidential election. He called for collaboration with Spain against U.S. and Israeli actions in the Middle East. Mélenchon warned of a looming war, climate change, and an economic crisis. He identified the far-right Rassemblement National as a significant threat but expressed confidence in defeating them. The RN's candidate may be Marine Le Pen or Jordan Bardella, with Le Pen's potential disqualification due to a court ruling. Mélenchon aims to reach the second round of voting.
