Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [Regnum] The founder and former leader of the French party "National Front" ("National Union") Jean-Marie Le Pen has died at the age of 96. This was reported on January 7 by the France Presse agency, citing the politician's family. "Jean-Marie Le Pen... [died] at 12:00 (14:00 Moscow time) on Tuesday, surrounded by his family," the publication says. It is noted that on the day of his death, the politician was in a medical facility in the commune of Garches (department of Hauts-de-Seine), to which he had been taken several weeks earlier. His daughter Marine Le Pen, who is the head of the parliamentary faction of the "National Rally", was on a visit to Mayotte (overseas department of France) that day. At that time, there was a collision between two barges, on one of which Le Pen was. As reported by the Regnum news agency, in April 2024, Jean-Marie Le Pen was placed under guardianship due to his deteriorating health. The corresponding decision was made by the court at the request of the politician's family after a medical examination. Le Pen was born on June 20, 1928, and became the youngest member of the French parliament in 1956. He also became the leader of the National Front party in 1972. The politician was a supporter of extreme right-wing views and during his political career he took part in the French presidential elections five times as a candidate for this post. In 2002, Le Pen managed to get to the second round of the presidential elections, but he received only 17.8% of the votes and lost to Jacques Chirac. In 2011, the politician handed over the leadership of the National Front to his daughter, and he was expelled from it in 2015. The National Front was renamed the National Rally in 2018.
