Le Pen claims that France can no longer afford to continue funding support for Ukraine. Her stance represents a significant shift in current French policy toward Kyiv and could also influence the European Union's broader approach to further aid. hnonline.sk ↗

The leader of the French far right also rejects Ukraine's accession to the European Union. She also mentioned sanctions against Russia, whose effectiveness and justification she questions. Details on which measures she would want to change if she were to take office as president were not provided. teraz.sk ↗

Le Pen is among the prominent candidates ahead of the spring presidential elections and, according to polls, currently leads the preferences. The results of the elections and the subsequent composition of the French government could therefore determine her plans. Onet Wiadomosci ↗

A potential halt to financial support for Ukraine would mean a shift in the stance of one of the key countries of the European Union. The impact of such a decision on European aid, sanctions policy, and relations with Ukraine would depend on further steps taken by Paris and its partners.
