Marine Le Pen reacted after the broadcast of these extracts which made the rounds on social networks, reports Le Figaro. At the microphone of BFMTVshe announced that she was filing a complaint for “abuse of weakness“against the group as well as”the people who allowed these musicians to return home“.

The president of the RN deputies insisted that her father may be all smiles on the videos, but according to her, “Jean-Marie Le Pen can recite Musset, but may not know what year it is“. With her sisters, Marie-Caroline and Yann, Marine Le Pen also wants to be guarantor of “protection of health and image” of the nonagenarian.
