Marine Le Pen defines her vision

Marine Le Pen, a candidate in the French presidential election, stated on Sunday, October 25, during a meeting in Orléans, that her goal is not to "recreate the France of before" but to "build the France of tomorrow."

Renaissance as a guiding theme

Le Pen emphasized the central theme of her political program: "Renaissance for France." She described the current period as one of historical and technological change, comparing it to the 16th century, a time of significant transformation in Europe.

Renaissance as a method

She defended the Renaissance as "a method, not a sudden break and certainly not a destructive revolution." Le Pen described it as "the progressive elevation of an entire country toward beauty, truth, justice, toward security, prosperity, and creativity."

Rejecting nostalgia for the past

Le Pen reiterated that "Renaissance is not the copy of the past." She clarified that she is not proposing to recreate the France of before but to "design and build the France of tomorrow." She stated, "We are not in the 'it was better before' mindset."

Returning power to the people

After praising referendums, Le Pen promised her supporters that if they gain power, it will be to "return it to the people." She claimed the Renaissance she wants will "reconcile citizens with politics."
