Le Pen cleared to run with ankle monitor after French court ruling

France’s Paris appeals court reduced Marine Le Pen’s ban on holding public office to one year while upholding the conviction for misusing EU funds, and ordered an electronic ankle tag for 12 months. Le Pen said she would not run if the tag prevented campaigning, leaving a possible path to a 2027 bid if she can campaign freely, with her National Rally leader Bardella voicing support. A Court of Cassation appeal remains a potential step.
