Marine Tondelier announced on Tuesday that she intends to suspend X in France if the platform does not comply with European regulations. The Green Party candidate for the 2027 presidential election denounced the influence of Elon Musk, owner of the social network, on French political debate. This stance comes as a new Russian destabilization campaign has targeted Gabriel Attal in recent days.

A tougher stance against interference

The national secretary of the Green Party justifies her proposal by citing the risks of foreign interference in the democratic process. She directly targets the American billionaire, whose repeated interventions in French political affairs are causing growing concern.

This statement marks a hardening of rhetoric in the run-up to the presidential election. Information attacks against French political figures are multiplying, fueling a debate on the regulation of digital platforms and the protection of national sovereignty against foreign actors.
