“
National unity in action
”.
Eric Zemmour announced on Wednesday April 27 on Twitter that his party, Reconquête!, "
will not present a candidate against Marine Le Pen, Éric Ciotti and Nicolas Dupont-Aignan
" in the context of the legislative elections of June 12 and 19. .
For several days, the movement led by the candidate eliminated in the first round of the presidential election (7.07%) has been calling for a union of the rights with the National Rally, Debout la France and some of the Republicans whom he considers compatible with his project. .

Reconquest!
ensures that this union would be at the head of the legislative elections, by adding the votes obtained in the first round of the presidential election by Eric Zemmour, Marine Le Pen, Nicolas Dupont-Aignan and the "
LR patriots
".
The party also supports its call by distributing a poll according to which 93% of its voters and 70% of those of the RN would be in favor of it.
For now, Eric Zemmour's call for union with the National Rally has remained a dead letter.
Officials of the presidential runner-up party criticize the former polemicist for his criticism of Marine Le Pen and oppose
"party agreements"
.
Marion Maréchal, executive vice-president of Reconquête!, regretted this position, accusing her former political family of looking for "
a pretext
" not to ally.
