President Donald Trump has offered his support to French far-right leader Marine Le Pen demanding she be set ‘free’ while branding her ban from elective office a ‘witch hunt’.
Le Pen, 56, on Monday was convicted of creating fake jobs at the EU parliament and taking advantage of expenses to employ assistants who were actually working for her party in France.
The matriarch of the hard-right National Rally (RN) party was barred from running for office for five years and given a four-year prison sentence, although she will not go to jail as half of it was suspended and the rest will be served with an electronic tag.
In a post to his Truth Social account, Trump wrote: ‘In The Witch Hunt against Marine Le Pen is another example of European Leftists using Lawfare to silence Free Speech, and censor their Political Opponent, this time going so far as to put that Opponent in prison.’
He went on to add that while he doesn’t know Le Pen personally he does ‘appreciate how hard she worked for so many years’.
The post continued: ‘She suffered losses, but kept on going, and now, just before what would be a Big Victory, they get her on a minor charge that she probably knew nothing about – Sounds like a ‘bookkeeping’ error to me.
‘It is all so bad for France, and the Great French People, no matter what side they are on. FREE MARINE LE PEN!’
Trump’s DOGE adviser Elon Musk echoed the American president’s views as he reposted the message on X (formerly Twitter) writing ‘Free Le Pen!’.
