Jordan Bardella's Book Sparks Controversy

Published: 2024-11-10

Jordan Bardella, president of the Rassemblement National, is at the center of a heated debate following the release of his book, "Ce que je cherche.

" The book, which aims to lay the groundwork for a political "union of the right," has been embroiled in controversy even before its official release.

Bardella's promotional campaign faced a setback when the advertising agency for SNCF refused to display ads for the book, citing political neutrality obligations.

This decision has led to legal action by the book's publisher, Fayard, claiming a violation of freedom of expression.

Meanwhile, Bardella's media appearances have sparked discussions about his political stance, particularly in relation to American politics and figures like Donald Trump.

Despite the controversies, the book is expected to achieve significant sales, marking a notable moment in Bardella's political journey.
