At just 28 years old, Jordan Bardella has emerged as a formidable force within France's far-right National Rally, positioning himself as a potential candidate for the country's youngest prime minister.
In the wake of recent legislative elections, Bardella has galvanized supporters as they aim for an absolute majority in the forthcoming decisive round on July 7. This win would allow the nationalist, anti-immigration party to take control of the government, with Bardella at the helm.
Bardella's trajectory has been one marked by swift ascension. He has become the face of his party, effectively targeting France's younger demographic through savvy social media use. Despite being a new figure, Bardella carries forward the rebranding efforts initiated by his mentor, Marine Le Pen, distancing the National Rally from its controversial past.
