France's Le Pen insists party acted in 'good faith' at EU embezzlement appeal

France's far-right figurehead Marine Le Pen has maintained that her National Rally party did not have a "system" of embezzling millions of euros in European Union funds to pay its staff in France, claiming they were acting in good faith. Le Pen's ongoing appeals trial will determine whether she will remain barred from running in the 2027 presidential election.
