French financial police conducted a raid on the headquarters of Rassemblement National as part of an investigation into campaign finance violations. Party president Jordan Bardella reported around 20 armed officers searched the offices and seized emails, documents, and accounting records. The exact nature of the allegations remains unclear, but the investigation focuses on illegal financing of recent electoral campaigns. Bardella characterized the police operation as a serious attack on pluralism and described it as a campaign of harassment against the opposition party, despite similar judicial inquiries faced by other political groups in France.
Since 8:50 this morning, the headquarters of Rassemblement National - including the offices of its leaders - have been searched by around 20 armed police officers from the Financial Brigade.
All emails, documents, and accounting records of the leading opposition party are being seized, and at this stage we do not know the precise nature of the allegations on which this action is based.
