epaselect epa12650472 Rassemblement National (RN) parliamentary party leader Marine Le Pen (C) arrives at the Paris courthouse for her appeal trial in the RN’s embezzlement case, in Paris, France, 15 January 2026. Le Pen and 11 co-defendants are appearing before a Paris appeals court between 13 January and 12 February in an embezzlement case involving alleged 'fake' parliamentary assistant jobs. The outcome will be a decisive factor in determining whether she can run in the 2027 presidential election, following a March 2025 ruling that barred her from public office for five years with immediate effect.
