## Resource

Jordan Bardella, France’s National Rally leader and top presidential contender, is under fresh legal scrutiny after authorities raided offices and homes of his team’s communications contractors—linked to a suspected €4.3 million misuse of EU funds by the predecessor group Identity and Democracy between 2019 and 2024. The probe adds pressure as Bardella’s political future hinges on Marine Le Pen’s pending appeal over embezzlement charges, while the party continues to face mounting judicial investigations—including a summer raid on its Paris HQ—amid a high-stakes election campaign.
