TOPSHOT - Member of French far-right party Rassemblement National (RN) Marine Le Pen (C) walks in a corridor during a break amid her trial on suspicion of embezzlement of European public funds, at Paris courthouse, on November 27, 2024. Le Pen and two dozen other party chiefs are accused of embezzling European Parliament money by creating fake jobs. Possible sanctions include jail as well as a decade-long ban from public office, which could wreck Le Pen's hopes of succeeding the incumbent President in a 2027 election.
