French right-wing TV host fans talk of presidential bid
Briefly

Cyril Hanouna, a prominent French media figure, sparked speculation about a possible presidential bid in 2027 during his Europe 1 show. He hinted at revealing his true intentions soon after a controversial manifesto was published by the weekly Valeurs Actuelles. The manifesto includes provocative proposals, such as establishing a 'French Guantanamo' and merging government ministries for efficiency. Despite the buzz, Hanouna emphasized that the article should not be interpreted as a formal announcement of his candidacy, drawing comparisons to other media personalities in politics.
Hanouna's manifesto is considered "revolutionary, disruptive and iconoclastic," suggesting a potential candidacy for president that is already stirring public interest.
In a possible parallel to Volodymyr Zelensky, Hanouna is seen as a media star leveraging his fame toward a political future, challenging traditional politicians.
