French presidential candidate Jean-Luc Melenchon promises to take decisive action in support of the Palestinians, against the genocide in Gaza and the gradual annexation of the occupied West Bank. According to him, the French vessels, like those from Italy and Spain, will accompany, if necessary, civilian flotillas protecting the rights of the Palestinians.
Melanchon also rejects the gradual annexation of southern Lebanon and the occupied Syrian Golan Heights, and has vowed to organize actions against increasing attacks on Christian communities in Palestine and Lebanon, which he says are under siege and persecution.
