## Resource

Jordan Bardella is emerging as France’s National Rally’s next big hope, stepping into the spotlight after Marine Le Pen’s potential political sidelining. With a court decision looming, Bardella is already defining the party’s future — from economic policy to EU reform — while touring Europe to build alliances. He’s courting Poland, engaging EU leaders, and pushing for France to reclaim sovereignty within NATO without abandoning the alliance. Facing tough questions on nuclear policy and defense, Bardella is crafting a more moderate, pragmatic image — all while the world watches to see if he can lead France’s far-right into the presidency.
