Paris, November 5, 2022 - Jordan Bardella, a deputy in the European Parliament, has been elected as the new leader of the Rassemblement National (RN), a far-right political party in France. Bardella, 27, takes over from Marine Le Pen, who has led the party for over two decades.
Bardella's election is a shift for the RN. He is the first person under the age of 30 to lead the party, and he is seen as representing a new generation of far-right politicians. His victory also marks a shift in the party's strategy, as he is considered more moderate than Le Pen and has said he wants to broaden the party's appeal.
Bardella's election has been met with mixed reactions. Some see it as a sign that the RN is becoming more mainstream, while others worry that it could lead to the party becoming more extreme. Only time will tell what Bardella's leadership will mean for the RN and for French politics.
Conclusion: Jordan Bardella's election as the new leader of the Rassemblement National is a significant event in French politics. It is a sign that the party is changing, and it remains to be seen what Bardella's leadership will mean for the RN and for France.
