Jean-Luc Mélenchon on Saturday presented the La France insoumise program for the 2027 presidential election in France at a rally in Bourget.

At the rally, he presented a program called "L'Avenir en commun," meaning "Shared Future." He offered his supporters a sweeping change in the country's political and economic direction. He also made clear that he does not want to soften his political stance for the sake of broader acceptability. Le Figaro ↗

According to several reports, the event was meant to mobilize La France insoumise's traditional voter base while also reaching out to other voters. Mélenchon is among the most prominent figures of the French radical left and is running for the presidency for a fourth time. Le Monde ↗

With his program, Mélenchon offers a fundamental change in social policy, foreign relations, and the economy.
