🇫🇷 French presidential hopeful Jean-Luc Mélenchon has vowed to enforce the ICC's arrest warrant against Netanyahu and pull France out of NATO if he wins the 2027 election.

Speaking before around 20,000 supporters at a rally outside Paris yesterday, he suggested that France needs a complete political overhaul.

"We must change everything," he told the crowd, accusing President Emmanuel Macron of presiding over a "dark end to his reign" following months of protests and police crackdowns.

Mélenchon's proposals also include lowering the retirement age to 60, raising the minimum wage, capping essential food prices and increasing taxes on the wealthy.

His party's newly published governing program contains roughly 1,000 pledges, including measures addressing Palestine and France's colonial history in Algeria.

Mélenchon finished third in the 2022 presidential election with nearly 22% of the vote, narrowly missing the runoff.

With the Middle East in turmoil and Democrats celebrating their midterm victories in the U.S., even most Israelis probably want to see Mélenchon try to enforce the warrant for the sake of seeing what happens next.
