'Everything must change,' Mélenchon tells supporters at rally
Jean-Luc Mélenchon, the radical left candidate for the 2027 French presidential election, emphasized the need for significant change during a rally in Le Bourget. He aims to challenge President Emmanuel Macron and potentially face Marine Le Pen in the second round of voting. Despite current polls suggesting he could reach this stage, he would likely lose to Le Pen. Mélenchon criticized Macron's presidency, describing it as marked by violence and brutality, and rejected calls for a less divisive approach, vowing to fight for his vision until the end.
