“Good winds, good seas, Dad!”, “many people he loves are waiting for him up there”, reacts his daughter Marine Le Pen

The president of the RN group in the National Assembly, who took over from her father in 2011, published a tribute message on the social network X.

Jean-Marie Le Pen celebrated by his political heir. On the social network “A venerable age had taken the warrior but had given us back our father. Death has come to take it back from us.”wrote Marine Le Pen. “Many people he loves are waiting for him up there. Many people who love him are mourning him down here. Good luck, good seas, Dad!”she concluded.

Marine Le Pen took the helm of the National Front in 2011, before renaming the party seven years later, a change that her father sharply criticized. The politician was returning from a trip to Mayotte when she learned of the death of the man who will remain a figure of the French extreme right. Jean-Marie Le Pen will be buried on Saturday in La Trinité-sur-Mer (Morbihan), “in family privacy”declared Wednesday morning on TF1 Louis Alliot, vice-president of the RN and former companion of Marine Le Pen. “I think there will be a religious ceremony in Paris”however, he said a little later on Sud Radio, without specifying whether it would be open to the public.
