"Marine Le Pen’s National Front asked Russia for a €27 million loan to help it fight presidential and parliamentary elections in 2017, the party’s treasurer said.
The French far-right party is notoriously strapped for cash as French banks refuse to lend it money, Wallerand de Saint-Just, the National Front’s treasurer, said.
“The party is applying to foreign banks … and why not Russian ones,” Saint-Just said.
...
The €27 million loan request comes after French police raided the National Front party offices near Paris on Wednesday as part of a probe into suspicions that the party is using assistants paid by the European Parliament for political work in France."
