The Paris Court of Appeal is confirming Marine Le Pen's conviction but has reduced her ban and ordered electronic monitoring, enabling her to run for president while she appeals.The court imposed 45 months of ineligibility with 15 months credited as served and a three-year prison sentence, one year to be served under house arrest with an electronic bracelet, and Le Pen says she will appeal to the Court of Cassation.Her televised candidacy frames the campaign as a fight against the French Establishment after earlier findings that she embezzled €4.1M, a development that raises questions for the
EU and concerns about her Eurosceptic stance and opposition to
NATO support for Ukraine.
