Marine Le Pen arrived in court for a verdict on her embezzlement conviction. A French court will issue the ruling on Tuesday. The outcome will determine whether Le Pen, leader of France's far-right party, can run in the 2027 presidential election.
If the court upholds the conviction, she will probably be barred from the race. Le Pen reached the courthouse as her party holds its strongest position yet to win national power.
