Le Pen vows France’s withdrawal from NATO if she presides

PARIS, Feb.6, (ST)-The right-wing Rally National presidential candidate Marine Le Pen has vowed that France will leave NATO if it wins the presidential election. Her speech to voters in Reims on February 5 is broadcast by BFM.TV.

According to the politician, France must withdraw from military blocs and protect its own interests.

“Therefore, we will withdraw from the NATO Joint Command so that we can no longer be dragged into other people’s conflicts,” Le Pen said.

As she added, France is “eluding the French” in “the great washing machine of the new century that seems to be disappearing from the Europeans.”

The presidential elections in France will be held in April 2022.
