Geopolitical News: Le Pen's Presidential Bid: Forced Tag, Court Battle Ahead

Marine Le Pen is officially in the race for the French presidency. The hard-right National Rally leader confirmed her bid, setting the stage for a dramatic political showdown. This comes after a French court ruled she could run, but with a significant catch: she must wear an electronic monitoring tag for a full year. Le Pen plans to fight that conviction in the top court, promising a legal battle alongside her campaign. The decision ends months of speculation, igniting fresh debate over France's political future.
