00:00 The former head of Frontex, the agency in charge of border control,
00:04 announced during an interview on Saturday night in the JDD that he will join the National Assembly,
00:10 the National Assembly, for the European elections in June and that he will occupy the third position on the list of Jordan Bardella.
00:16 The National Assembly has a concrete plan and the ability to implement it.
00:20 We are determined to fight migratory submersion,
00:24 which the European Commission and the Eurocrats do not consider a problem,
00:29 but rather as a project, I can testify to this,
00:31 said Fabrice Leggeri in the newspaper on Sunday.
00:35 This 55-year-old French civil servant, Ennark and Normalien,
00:39 took over the management of Frontex from 2015 to 2022,
00:43 before resigning following a disciplinary inquiry.
00:46 He was a contested director of Frontex,
00:49 regularly accused by NGOs of tolerating illegal migratory refoulements
00:53 and had imposed himself as a defender of the impermeability of European borders.
00:58 "My goal is to put my experience and expertise in the service of the French."
01:03 Having led Frontex for nearly seven years and worked for the State for about 30 years,
01:08 especially in the areas of security and immigration management,
01:12 this decision is very consistent, he said at the JDD.
01:15 "The European elections on 9 June represent a unique opportunity
01:20 to put France and Europe back on the right track," he added.
01:24 Jordan Bardella, head of the list and president of the RN,
01:27 is currently leading all the polls for this European scrutiny,
01:31 around 30%, with a dozen points ahead of the Macronist majority.
01:36 The support of this high-ranking official is a sign of the will of the far-right party
01:40 to stuff its reservoir of experts and technocrats
01:43 to gain credibility in order to exercise power one day.
01:46 Its leader Marine Le Pen is also leading the first-round polls
01:51 for the 2027 presidential election.
01:54 Anti-fraud office investigation
01:56 Former Frontex boss @FabriceLeggeri was pushed to resign,
02:01 released by Emmanuel Macron because he was acting against the submersion of Europe,
02:05 said Jordan Bardella in a message on the X network.
02:09 Fabrice Leggeri resigned in April 2022 from the executive board of Frontex
02:15 after the opening of a disciplinary inquiry by the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF).
02:21 The high-ranking official was targeted by a non-public report of this organization which,
02:25 according to press information,
02:27 blamed him for "not having respected the procedures,
02:30 for having shown disloyalty to the European Union
02:33 and for being responsible for "bad personal management".
02:36 Regarding these accusations,
02:38 it is important to note that neither the European Parliament
02:41 nor the Frontex Board of Directors found concrete evidence to support them,
02:45 says Fabrice Leggeri in the JDD.
02:48 "In reality, in order to control immigration,
02:52 I underwent pressure and felt a general abandonment.
02:55 The French government urged me to resign.
02:58 Germany was not inclined to support me.
03:02 The European Commission,
03:04 which was obviously hostile to me,
03:06 wanted me to leave," he added.
03:08 Based in Warsaw,
03:10 Frontex is one of the most politically exposed agencies in the European Union.
03:15 Like coast guards and border guards,
03:18 these means have been regularly strengthened
03:20 to deal with the influx of migrants to European borders.
